TWO UNFORGETTABLE STORIES. TWO FAMILIES. TWO HUNDRED YEARS OF HISTORY.
1854: When Mulanyin meets the beautiful Nita in Brisbane – or Edenglassie, as it was once briefly known – his community still outnumbers the British settlers. Tensions are simmering just beneath the surface of a fragile peace, but hopes for independence are running high. Yet when colonial unrest tears through the region, Mulanyin's passion for his new bride clashes with his loyalty to a homeland in danger.
Two centuries later, fiery activist Winona meets Dr Johnny when her grandmother Eddie has a serious fall. Winona just wants the obstinate centenarian back on her feet, but a shrewd journalist has other ideas. Eddie becomes a local celebrity, dominating the headlines as 'Queensland's Oldest Aboriginal'.
Her time in the spotlight brings past and present crashing together, the legacy of Nita and Mulanyin's tragic past reaching into Winona and Eddie's lives with consequences they couldn't have predicted.

'Gripping, political, horny, moving and very, very funny. Make it into a film already.'—Guardian
'Melissa is the big gust of leaf-laden wind that we needed.' —Tim Winton
'[Edenglassie] unpicks the myths of Brisbane's colonial history and puts the shocking brutality and injustice of British occupation under eye-opening scrutiny. With the dual timeline, we see how that past continues to leave its mark on the present and future as we connect deeply with Melissa's cast of beautifully drawn characters.’ —Australian Women's Weekly
