An impulse buy at Manly Lifeline. Not an author I know of, but I'm always interested in NZ writers. Fascinating historical fiction about a catastrophic eruption in the late 1800s, including the destruction of the famed Pink and White Terraces.
Apparently it was aimed at 9 -12 year olds, but the content could be distressing (searching for survivors and bodies). Sobering read in the light of the 2019 Whakaari eruption.
