The Silent Kookaburra

Autor Liza Perrat
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 ian 2017
All eleven-year-old Tanya Randall wants is a happy family. But Mum does nothing besides housework, Dad's always down the pub and Nanna Purvis moans at everyone except her dog. Then Shelley arrives -- the miracle baby who fuses the Randall family in love for their little gumnut blossom. Tanya's life gets even better when she meets an uncle she didn't know she had. He tells her she's beautiful and could be a model. Her family refuses to talk about him. But that's okay, it's their little secret. Then one blistering summer day tragedy strikes, and the surrounding mystery and suspicion tear apart this fragile family web. Embracing the social changes of 1970s Australia, against a backdrop of native fauna and flora, The Silent Kookaburra is a haunting exploration of the blessings, curses and tyranny of memory. Unsettling psychological suspense blending the intensity of Wally Lamb with the atmosphere of Peter James, this story will get under your skin.
