The Name of the Sister |
A slow-burn thriller in which a Sydney investigative journalist becomes involved in a Missing Persons case in the red desert mining area of Western New South Wales. The once prosperous town is now largely desolate. Jones portrays the essence of atmosphere and timeless vastness of the landscape and its effect on the inhabitants, with the reflection and insight of a poet. The conclusion of the quest is as alluring and satisfying as the cover picture!
