AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Snake my way around the fence-line, getting nearer. Look at Dad. Still cavemanning. Look at Jane. Still sulking. Look at him. He turns to me and says: “You ready?” And I say… “Yeah.”

'On a warm summer night two teens disappear from a neighbourhood barbecue, vanishing without a trace.

'There’s Clara, seventeen, fed up with her suburb and everyone in it. Everyone except Andrew, the newly arrived rich kid from the right side of the tracks.

'Sparks fly and they jump in his Monaro and hit the road, yearning for a life of adventure. But they soon learn that escape isn’t that easy, and fires can burn beyond control.'
