In 1788 Lieutenant Daniel Rooke sets out on a journey in search of his future.

As astronomer with the First Fleet, he establishes an observatory on the shore of Sydney Harbour. Then an Aboriginal child begins to visit and teaches him her language. The conversations that take place between them change the way Rooke sees the world and his place in it.

Inspired by real events, Kate Grenville’s profoundly moving novel tells the story of a unique friendship. The Lieutenant is set thirty years earlier than the award-winning The Secret River, but it continues the powerful drama of early Australia – this time in sunlight rather than shadow.
