About this listen

A powerful and poignant rural family story told by the acclaimed Fleur McDonald, bestselling author of Broad River Station and Into the Night.

When Sassi Stapleton receives a middle-of-the-night phone call to tell her that her beloved grandmother is unwell, she quickly puts her job on hold, packs her ute and sets off on the long drive home, knowing her grandfather will need her.

Less than an hour away from Sassi's hometown, Barker, she swerves to miss a roo and her car rolls down an embankment. By the time Sassi is found, her grandmother has already passed away.

On the other side of the world, Sassi's estranged mother, Amber, receives a similar call and shocks the whole family when she flies home from South Africa.

With everyone under the same roof, tensions escalate as Amber's secrecy and odd behavior become unsettling. What is she really doing at home with a father she's barely spoken to since she left years ago? And will Amber and Sassi ever be able to reconnect?

Brilliant as always

Another great spin off story of Detective Dave Burrows, couldn’t put it down. Fleur’s ability to capture a snapshot into rural living and let a persons imagination be swept away by the Australian landscape is truely incredible. You are always left wanting to know the next part of Dave’s journey. Cannot wait for the next one!

Twist at the end

Love the country style policing and how everything comes to light and makes total sense at the end.

good storyline

I really enjoyed the storyline of this book however the narrator sounded like she was reading a kids story book. This unfortunately ruined the experience for me.
