A woman at the end of her life. A man unable to restart his. A history of guilty secrets and things left unsaid. A powerful, moving novel that will steal your heart.
Karen Viggers was born in Melbourne, Australia, and grew up in the
Dandenong Ranges riding horses and writing stories. She studied
Veterinary Science at Melbourne University, and then worked in
mixed animal practice for seven years before completing a PhD at
the Australian National University, Canberra, in wildlife health.
Since then she has worked on a wide range of Australian native
animals in many different natural environments, including
Antarctica. She lives in Canberra with her husband (an ecologist
also passionate about wildlife) and two children. As well as
writing, she works part-time in a veterinary practice and provides
veterinary support for biologists studying native animals. Visit

author.
*Australian Women Online*
This is an engrossing, often moving but never mawkish read.
*Adelaide Advertiser*
Karen Viggers sets the scene in a family dynamic filled with
regret, loss and love. Poetic in its treatment, it's a novel of
parallels and, ultimately, hope.
