About this listen
The year is 1977, and Adrian is nine. He lives with his gran and his uncle Rory; his best friend is Clinton Tull. He loves to draw and he wants a dog; he's afraid of quicksand, shopping centres and self-combustion.
Adrian watches his suburban world, but there is much he cannot understand. He does not, for instance, know why three neighbourhood children might set out to buy ice-cream and never come back home.

What the critics say
"As sharp and as tender as a suspenseful novel can be." (Robert Drewe)
"Sonya Harnett's latest work has been compared with that of Steinbeck and Faulkner." (The Age)
