The Space Between By Lauren Keenan

A gripping historical novel set at the dawn of the First Taranaki War in 1860. Frances, an unmarried Londoner newly landed in New Zealand, comes face-to-face with Henry White, the man who jilted her a decade earlier. He is married now - to the proud and hardy Mataria, who is shunned by her whanau due to this controversial marriage. As conflict between settlers and iwi rises, both women must find the courage to fight for what is right, even if it costs them everything they know.
