ABBEY'S BOOKSELLER PICK ----- Twins Iris and Floyd are friendless itinerant workers whose parents’ crimes and reputation both haunt and dog them. When they hear that a substantial bounty has been placed on a man-killing puma in the snowy uplands, they head off in search of it. They react to the land in different ways, and Iris in particular finds it calls to her. But the people they meet have different stories to tell of the land - and of Dusk, the puma. Once again, Arnott powerfully evokes the time-filled landscapes of Tasmania with this mythic tale of loss and longing, of horror, family and the search for redemption. Brilliant! Lindy
