This is the story of a collision between Aziz, an Afghan refugee on the run from detention and Miri, a woman lost in her own life. Miri flees from her grief at her daughter's death and her husband's infidelity to her Cuban grandmother's old house, in a town where outsiders and any hint of eccentricity, are viewed with suspicion.

Carol Lefevre grew up in the Australian outback and although most of her adult life has been passed in cities and in countries far from home, the outback landscape remains a persistent presence and inspiration. She has worked as a singer, a barmaid, nanny, and writer for glossy lifestyle magazines. But whatever she happens to be working at, her real job is always writing. In 2005 Carol graduated from the University of Adelaide with an MA in Creative Writing. She lives between the Isle of Man and Adelaide, South Australia, where she combines freelance writing and photography with doctoral studies. www.carollefevre.com
