Publisher's Summary
Tracking North is a beautiful family story about life in the stunning Gulf Country, one of the world's most unique and fascinating places.
Kelly Roberts finds refuge in the rugged and remote cattle country of Northern Australia, but when tragedy strikes, she is forced to find a new life for herself and her children outside of Rainsford Station.
She retreats to the family’s only asset - a freehold block of land owned jointly by her eccentric father-in-law, Quinn. In the valley at Evergreen Springs, Quinn hopes the fractured family might all come together to start over again.
Life in Queensland’s Far North is unpredictable - especially with the wildness of the wet season. But when 12-year-old Rob makes a gruesome discovery in the valley, real peril comes far too close to home.

Good listening
Good story line that held the readers interest. Narrator could have been a little better with male voices but overall a good listen.

Delightful
I really enjoyed this story. It was easy listening with good description of the location, people and activity. Just enough drama to keep you interested in the highs and lows of this family story, with a predictable and happy ending.

Life and growing love in a harsh environment.
Tracking North is a vivid picture of the larger than life people who live in the far north of Australia where just the thought of the humidity during the wet season is enough to fry my brain. I know I couldn’t stand to live there, but there are many who do and they put up with the rain and the heat, the snakes, the goannas and the dingoes, and the people who live away from the towns, in relative isolation, work harder than most Australians could imagine having to work to get from one day to the next.
There is a gentle love story woven throughout, but the book to me was really a camera lens looking at the struggles of newly widowed Kelly bringing up her preteen son, Rob (nickname, Twice) and younger daughter, Annie when they go to live with Kelly's father-in-law, Quin.
A fascinating read and the audible narration was excellent.

Lovely
Really enjoyed this novel. Good domestic drama set in the beautiful north of Australia. Book captured the atmosphere of the stifling heat and wet and the beauty that exists in this harsh country.
