'From a few shimmering strands of truth, Lauren Chater has spun an intriguing story of love, loss and fulfilment.' says Pip Williams, author of the bestseller, The Dictionary of Lost Words.
Kim Kelly offers us a historical fiction set around the Queen Victoria Building in Sydney. In the sweltering summer of 1900, young wharf labourer Patrick O'Reilly is down on his luck in the slums of Sydney and homesick for Tralee. When a deadly outbreak of plague descends on the city, O'Reilly's daydreaming mind is miles away in the golden hair and kindly, confident air of a girl called Rosie Hughes.
Sean Rabin's novel is a great one for readers of adventure stories.

For anyone who has ever loved and lost, and dared to rise again. This is a story of the ties of family that enmesh in love and death, and the journey back to self in its aftermath.
Dramatic and urgent in its telling, Kari Gislason's story celebrates one woman's quest, against the dramatic backdrop of the Icelandic countryside. In this gripping novel, the co-author of the bestselling Saga Land takes a sidelined figure from the Viking tales and finally puts her where she belongs - at the centre of the story.
Nicole Alexander has written a captivating story of heritage, heartbreak and hope, set during the dying days of the riverboat trade along the Darling River.
In this extraordinary work, Omar Sakr deftly weaves a multifaceted tale brimming with angels and djinn, racist kangaroos and adoring bats, examining with a poet's eye the destructive impetus of repressed desire and the complexities that make us human.
In this twisty, evocative mystery, Jane Cockram flips the looking glass to reveal the lines of deception and love, truth and regret that run through families.
ABBEY'S BOOKSELLER PICK ----- A very interesting attempt to portray a country town (I read: Tamworth) through a chorus of interlinking voices and small episodes that build a larger picture of rural life. There's tragedy, and hope, hard work and shattered dreams, small moments of possibility and crushing defeat. I admit I enjoyed the first two-thirds of the book more than the last part, which at times lost the thread and didn't always weave together neatly. But the writing is always fresh and immediate and well worth the reading for the many moments of deep perception and acute recognition. Lindy Jones
