'His beauty and aloofness disturbed the equilibrium of the Rankin family...The stockman for a long time offered a resistance to the efforts of the members of the family to involve him in their lives. He moved about in their familiar world, observing it with unfamiliar eyes; and quietly, industriously he slowly rearranged it.'
Ward Rankin had not wanted to be tied to the station; he'd imagined a life of travel and experience but there was no-one else. When his mother died, it came to him - owner and manager, now in his fifties, a frustrated man. Ida, his young wife, sees a solution to her own discontent in her growing feelings for the young English stockman Robert Crofts, whose arrival on the station changes their lives forever.
Set in the remote Central Highlands of Queensland against a backdrop of heat, torrential rain and the strange and lonely landscape, this is a novel of passion, suspense, reinvention and revenge, watched over by the solitary presence of Mt Mooloolong.

i have never read Alex Miller before. My usual reads are Thrillers so this was a departure for me. It was slow getting into but eventually was almost unputdownable (if there is such a word). The characters are wonderfully drawn and the writing is superb. A serious read which has to be read slowly to be savoured. When I finished it I went back to the beginning and started again picking up nuances i had missed or glided over originally. Recommended.Product details

Not as good as some of his other books, but still an enjoyable read about the Outback.
A great read, with believable characters. Interesting psychological insights into all the characters. I have traveled to this area if the country and it is beautifully described.
