| Summary |
"When Kelvin returns to his home town on the southern coast of New South Wales he finds himself drawn to a community back in the hills. He meets Jessica, a would-be writer who has escaped the city, and her enigmatic neighbour, Carl. Both are pursuing new lives inspired by the extraordinary landscape around them. As his relationship with Jessica intensifies Kelvin is caught up by some of the more radical elements in the community. No-one, however, is quite who they seem, and Kelvin makes a decision that will have devastating consequences for all of them. Deep in the southern forests, the story builds to a dramatic climax"--Book jacket |
