pick6-year-old Denny goes missing in 1880s South Australia.The novel spans 7 days moving back&forth between the numerous characters:Denny,his family,Aboriginal trackers,other members of the community,a European painter couple&Afghani cameleers.This is not a mystery but a quiet,poetic story that takes the reader to Australia when it was colonised.I felt immersed in the small town as if I was there.
pickIn this wonderful lyrical novel, the story of a six year old boy lost in the South African outback, is told through a series of incredible character studies. We meet his family and those searching for him, some genuinely concerned, and some with their own agendas. We also get to know Denny, lost during a dust storm, and experience his fear, and yes wonder as he seeks his Mam and home. McFarlane writes beautifully. Highly recommended!

pickSet in Australia in the 1880s about a boy who goes missing in the desert. It‘s also a slice-of-life story as the narrative bounces around between the characters in town, following little side plots that meander pleasantly through the novel. Every character is developed beautifully. This was a solid read.
