A shocking murder wakes an ancient power in outback New South Wales. A truck driver, a schoolboy, a retired bank manager and an eccentric country woman are among the people trapped on the Silver City Highway, caught in a supernatural quest for justice and a nightmarish journey that never seems
to end.
This title is also available in Russia (Amphora-Red Fish).
‘Deftly structured . . . The eerie power of the Australian outback is a familiar theme, but the vividness of Jinks’s characters and the energy of her story make up the ground.’
The Sydney Morning Herald
‘A tense and scary supernatural page-turner . . . I’ve always thought there should be more outback horror and Catherine Jinks has come up with
the goods.’
The Age
‘Young adults will love this, but all fans of shudder-making stories will be on edge to find the answer – and think twice about a rural excursion!’
