On their third asteroid mission, Hayabusa 3, the Japanese find far more than they had expected. The Australian space agency has skin in the game, but the Americans want in and the Russians are breathing down their neck.
This fast-paced speculative science fiction novel will make you wonder about the wildly possible, the deep divides of race, and our own place in the universe. It’s a space race like no other, hurtling toward the harsh remote terrain of outback Australia.
An isolated property in the middle of Western Australia, just after the Great War. An English heiress has just given birth and unleashed hell. Weakened and grieving, she realises her life is in danger, and flees into the desert with her Aboriginal maid. One of them is running from a murderer; the other is accused of murder.
Soon the women are being hunted across the Kimberley by troopers, trackers and the man who wants to silence them both. How they survive in the searing desert and what happens when they are finally found will take your breath away.
