Trails in the Dust: A Woody Creek Novel 7

Description

Bestselling author of the Woody Creek series 'Dettman writes compulsively readable stories' The Age After many tumultuous years spent grappling with the past, Jenny Hooper might have expected her latter years to be the best of her life, and they are - until tragedy strikes. Left floundering in a house full of memories, not all of them good, Jenny knows a reckoning is in order - with her daughters, and most of all with the beloved son she lost decades before. Only meeting him, and having the chance to tell him the truth about what happened, will give her peace. But is it too late? Praise for Trails in the Dust 'Dettman's talent for characterisation, plotting and evocation of rural Australian life is once again securely on display' Saturday Age 'This family saga will tug on your heart strings and have you turning the pages all night' New Idea
