The day has finally arrived... THE HOMECOMING hits the shelves across Australia and New Zealand (and virtual bookshelves elsewhere!). With my last three books coming out during lockdowns it is beyond thrilling to be able to visit bookshops and libraries and see this book on the shelves in Big W and K Mart.
Of all the books I have written in the last few years, this is the one which fought me the most. I started it in the middle of 2021 and for those who can remember, those were dark days for us Melbournians as we lurched from lockdown to lockdown. I couldn't escape my 5km restriction to visit my beloved Walhalla and breathe in the scent of the eucalypts and feel the cold mountain air on my cheek.
But Charlie and Danny were keen for their story to be told and my editor was patient and gave me the time and space the book needed and it came together.
This is a story with something for everyone... there is a murder mystery to solve, a romance between two unlikely protagonists, an actual unsolved historical mystery, a cataclysmic event... and, if you have read the earlier books, old friends and old hurts to be resolved.
Early reviews have been encouraging and after all the dark misery of recent years, it is time to celebrate with some book launch events...
