Psychological suspense and profound family drama meet in this heartrending and original Australian fiction, from Australian award-winning author Robbi Neal.
1975, Ballarat. Alice is happy in her world, and in return for her happiness the world is good to her. She has everything she needs – a lovely house and children, and a devoted husband. Even though her journalism job doesn't pay much, she doesn't have to worry about the bills. All is well with her world until a terrible accident rips a child from her, a profound betrayal is uncovered, and things fall apart.
On the same day Alice's world collapses, a man is found brutally murdered on respected teacher Ellery's farm. Ellery can't remember what happened but there is blood on his clothes, and he is arrested.
Neither Alice nor Ellery realise that their paths in life are about to intertwine and a desperate bargain is about to be made. A bargain that could save or destroy them in their quest to draw some light and fathom the darkness that surrounds them.
'This brilliant ode to difference, transcends time and place. Written in sublime prose, filled with drama, humour, tragedy and astounding beauty, it’s an achingly lovely tale ...' (on The Secret World of Connie Starr)
Karen Brooks, author of The Good Wife of Bath
'Absolutely compelling.' (on Sunday Best)
The Sunday Herald Sun
'Neals narrative voice is neither pedestrian nor sensationalist … it is direct yet subtle and finely balanced … it is at once intimate and polished.' (on Sunday Best)
