Two sisters. A dying father. And an eerie secret - one for three... Cold, damp summer of 1960. Deep in the Australian outback. Eleven-year-old Joy Henderson lives in constant fear of her father. She tries to please him in every way possible to avoid another hail of torture. But the father is always adamant: his daughter - a vile sinner, doomed to Hell ... Many years later, thirty-five-year-old Joy returns to her parents' home to take care of a seriously ill torturer. And, to her own surprise, she meets her "perfect" sister Ruth. Ruth whispers poisonous words in her ear, calling for revenge. The next day Joy finds her father dead, with a belt around his neck. The same belt that he once used to flog his children... This unusually powerful and heartfelt novel takes the reader between the 1940s, 1960s and 1980s. An unforgettable literary canvas depicting the bleak Australian outback, its sometimes violent inhabitants - and the quiet pools of human consciousness....
