The Europeans

1 review
72 views
IT WAS A LAND OF HOPE AND GLORIOUS POSSIBILITY and the Europeans arrived in droves, including Bing McKeon, Peter Papadopoulos and Matthew O’Gorman. Their dramatic story unfolds in the mountains of Northern Victoria and extends through a lifetime of sordid confrontations that involves arson, kidnap and murder. They take on every challenge and each other. Amidst the backdrop of equestrian and thoroughbred competition, the very beautiful Lydia turns heads as quickly as her father makes money. The black mark that stains his character is known to few, but fans the flames of an endless feud, uncompromising as it is unfortunate.

One immigrant panned for gold. His daughter dreamed of an Olympic medal. Winning the Melbourne Cup was every man’s fantasy—great expectations, all. Who was to say it wouldn’t happen?
It was a long way from fantasy to Flemington, but Bing McKeon never doubted that this is where his journey would end. His mortal enemy Peter Papadopoulos, vowed to get there before him. It is a journey filled with tears, triumph, terror and trepidation.
