About this listen
He thought he had everything until tragedy struck... Adam Ross, orphaned at nine, cherished a dream - that one day he would have land of his own. The opal fields of Coober Pedy offered his first glimpse of riches - and Nellie, a dusky beauty, provided his first taste of love...
From the western plains of New South Wales to the balmy waters of Sydney Harbour, from the grinding heat of a West Australian cattle station to the eerie desert shores of Lake Eyre, Adam was driven by his ambition. At his side stood Heather, a woman whose blonde beauty masked a calculating heart of ice. And when tragedy struck, it seemed that Adam would never realise his dream...

Riveting from start to finish
Absolutely beautifully written, Perfect Narration!! I was so drawn in, that I would get angry everytime Heather spoke to Adam. Can't wait to listen to Kalinda!!!

Such a great book !!!
Thoroughly enjoyed this one. I miss all the characters now that I’ve finished it. It’s a long one so great for a long road trip and then some.

Great Australian story
The wife got me so worked up I thought I'd need blood pressure tablets! She was such a nasty piece of work at times I had to stop listening. Overall the story was a good one. A little drawn out in places but I'm still looking forward to the sequel.

Good story but the Narration was off
Loved the story but felt the Narrator didn’t fit the Outback characters. Lots of twist & turns in the story though

Good but long winded
Very good storyline with great performances but very longwinded. Had me at the edge of my seat many times.

Long, rambling, rollicking and very enjoyable
A long and rambling tale of the Aussie Outback (Coober Pedy opals, Nyngan in W. NSW, the Pilbara and back to Lake Eyre) and thoroughly enjoyable, especially as an audio book read by one of my favourites Richard Aspel.
Could have perhaps done with some tighter editing, but on the other hand the long dialogue exchanges really did add genuine authenticity to it all. Our spontaneous speech is rarely as concise as carefully considered ´taut´ prose, albeit highly lauded!
The sort of book where one suspends the critical faculties and just sits back and enjoys. Australia´s answer to Larry McMurtry.
Perfect for these COVID-19 days!
Highly recommended, and also the sequel Kalinda which I actually read first,

It’s both entertaining and enjoyable

Engrossing Story
Gripping story, excellent narration. Incredible detail, even excruciating at times. But hard to stop listening
