AbstractHistoryArchive Description
A lone prospector arrives in an Australian range of hills and determines to stay in a deserted hut even though it was said to be haunted by the ghost of an earlier prospector murdered there, the shape of his body burnt into the rock. A half-witted malevolent girl, her surly grandfather, two troopers, a cave hidden in rocks and the a supposedly guilty man is proven innocent by his own efforts. True mateship and attempted family murder included. Cowardly death on the scaffold; a lunatic asylum and happiness in England are the results. (PB)
