This novel is bound to get book clubs talking.
THE AUSTRALIAN
This is a not-to-be-missed reading experience.
HAYLEY SCRIVENOR
'Unquestionably is one of the best novels by an Australian author in recent times. It is spellbinding, credible and very cleverly constructed.'
ARTS HUB
A thriller exploring rural Australia's simultaneous celebration of harsh country and stoic people – a tension that forces its inhabitants to dangerous breaking points.
On a remote property in western NSW, nine-year-old Parker fears that something is wrong with his brain. His desperate attempts to control this internal chaos spark a series of events that gallop from his control in deadly and devastating ways.
Years later, Parker, now a father himself, returns to the bushland he grew up in for a camping trip with old friends. When this reunion descends into chaos amid revelations of unresolved fear, guilt and violence, Parker must finally address the consequences of his childhood actions.
