Description
1978, the Northern Territory: Life is hard and isolated for five very different women. There’s Sybil, matriarch of Fairvale Station, mystified by the disappearance of her eldest son; Rita, her oldest friend, who works for the Flying Doctor in Alice Springs; mother-of-three Sallyanne, who dreams of escaping her dusty town; British Kate, who is adjusting with difficulty to life at Fairvale, and Della, who left Texas for Australia looking for adventure. When Sybil starts a book club to bring them together, their friendship will transform their lives forever.
