'In the aftermath of devastating bushfires that destroyed the property where she grew up, Eve Nicholls finds herself grappling with the smouldering ruins of her life. It might be possible to rebuild a house, but what about her dream of renewing friendships and becoming part of her home-town community of Yarrabee?

'Haunted by loss, Eve discovers a glimmer of hope when she learns that new life is growing within her - a fragile and unexpected beacon of renewal, and an added complication in her blossoming relationship with the local vet, Hugh. Determined to start afresh, she resolves to rebuild both her house and her shattered spirit.

'When accusations of arson emerge, old hurts and resentments resurface, and whispers of suspicion surround Eve. In a desperate bid to clear her name, she enlists the help of a visiting journalist, whose keen eye and relentless pursuit of the truth become her lifeline. Together, they unravel a web of deceit and betrayal that threaten to engulf Eve once more.' (Publication summary)

Howes , 2022 23953748 2022 anthology autobiography 'Black Inc.'s bestselling Growing Up series goes to the country Growing Up in Country Australia is a fresh, modern look at country Australia. There are stories of joy, adventure, nostalgia, connection to nature and freedom, but also more grim tales - of drought, fires, mouse plagues and isolation. From the politics of the country school bus to the class divides between locals, from shooting foxes with Dad to giving up meat as an adult, from working on the family farm to selling up and moving to the city, the picture painted is diverse and unexpected. This is country Australia as you've never seen it before. Including nearly forty stories by established and emerging authors from a wide range of backgrounds - including First Nations and new migrants - Growing Up in Country Australia is a unique and revealing snapshot of rural life. Contributors include Holden Sheppard, Laura Jean McKay, Annabel Crabb, Sami Shah, Lech Blaine, Tony Armstrong, Bridie Jabour, Jes Layton, Lily Chan, Jay Carmichael and many others.' (Publication summary)
