ABBEY'S BOOKSELLER PICK ----- Winton displays a rare aptitude for subtle horror in this novel. In my humble opinion, Winton perfectly conjures the Australian bush, with imagery you won't be able to shake for months. Winton delivers a perfect novel so real you will think you too, were privy to this unsettling time. Meg
-----
Night falls. In a lonely valley called the Sink, four people prepare for a quiet evening. Then in his orchard, Murray Jaccob sees a moving shadow. Across the swamp, his neighbour Ronnie watches her lover leave and feels her baby roll inside her. And on the veranda of the Stubbses' house, a small dog is torn screaming from its leash by something unseen. Nothing will ever be the same again.
