review 1: We all wonder how parents cope when their child is snatched from them by a predator. Sarah and Doug lose their some Lockie at the Sydney Agricultural Show. Their pain and suffering is heartbreaking for the reader. Tina is a runaway working as a Prostitute is Kings Cross. She is taken to the home of a man who picks her up for services and discovers a boy under the table. This meeting is life changing for Tina and for Lockie and his family. Tina has guts and character and the author details her in a way that makes the reader sympathetic to her tragic circumstances. She is by far the central character in the book.
review 2: I don't know if I can find the words for this one. It was brilliant. The writing was brilliant. The characters were brilliant. The emotion was... more palpable, and I literally could not put it down, finishing it in a mere two sittings and reading into the wee hours. I haven't done that in a long while. I loved everything about it. This is the book that inspired me to start writing again. Thank you Nicole for restoring my faith that good writing still exists. less
