Tikka Molloy was eleven and one-sixth years old during the long hot summer of 1992, the summer the Van Apfel sisters – Hannah, beautiful Cordelia and Ruth – vanished during the school’s Showstopper concert, mysteriously disappearing from the amphitheatre by the river into the surrounding bushland.

Now, years later, Tikka has returned home to try and make sense of the summer that shaped her, and the girls that she never forgot.

Blackly comic, sharply observed and wonderfully endearing, this is Picnic at Hanging Rock for a new generation. A haunting coming-of-age story with a shimmering, unexplained mystery at its heart.

Reviews for The Van Apfel Girls Are Gone

‘An entrancing, melancholy debut... Mesmerising.’ -- Daily Mail 'A coming-of-age drama as much as a crime story…haunting, atmospheric and genuinely mysterious.' -- Guardian 'One part mystery, one million parts amazing.' -- Cosmopolitan
