About this listen
Southern Australia, 1983. While Middle-aged stalwart Miriam rolls into town in her broken down car, Frankie—a deer hunter—is up in the forested hinterland with her gun.
Meanwhile, fisherwoman Old Pearl sits on her front deck with her dog, a glass of whiskey in her hand, and Emily, the English backpacker, scrubs out the pie-encrusted kitchen at the roadhouse.
But all is not well.
Gran Parks is stirring.
Four troubled women. One restless spirit.
Who will survive?

For the '70s child, summer holidays didn't mean the joy of CentreParcs or the sophistication of a Tuscan villa. They meant being crammed into a car with Grandma and heading to the coast. With just a tent for a home and a bucket for the necessities, we would set off on new adventures each year stoically resolving to enjoy ourselves. For Emma Kennedy, and her mum and dad, disaster always came along for the ride no matter where they went.

Few authors write with such sheer love of story and language as T. C. Boyle, and that is nowhere more evident than in his inventive, wickedly funny, and always entertaining short stories. Here are 14 new tales previously unpublished in book form. By turns mythic and realistic, farcical and tragic, ironic and moving, Boyle's stories have mapped a wide range of human emotions. The stories here reflect his maturing themes.

So Daniel Mackmain keeps his head down and keeps himself to himself. But now a girl has been murdered, and the Derbyshire police are taking a closer look at a loner who travels from place to place, picking up work as he goes.

The Past and the Present.
This book is not for the faint of heart or someone who has a weak stomach for it is very descriptive and gory. The story starts off slow but when it picks up it packs a punch. This storyline will definitely make you think twice about small towns and its inhabitants. Revenge, the past and a paranormal twist. I received this book for free upon my request but it has no bearing on my review. This is my honest unbiased review that I am voluntarily leaving of my own volition.

revenge? vigilante? country justice?
Not what I expected at all! At times, it was difficult for me to keep my stomach contents in place. The gore and detached manner in which the crimes were committed was sociopathic. This takes a strong constitution (stomach) to get through all the horrors within. Proceed with caution. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator was good.
