‘I want you to come back to Kings Canyon … If you see it again, the memories of what happened might return.’

When Sara Blake takes up a position as governess on Redhill Station in Central Australia, she isn’t expecting to encounter a family in crisis, or to uncover a tragedy of her own.

The longer she spends out bush, the more she becomes plagued by elusive visions of her dark and troubled childhood. The fragments of memory lead her deep into the red centre of Australia, where at picturesque Kings Canyon she must confront the horrifying secrets of her past.

From the bestselling author of Tracking North comes an evocative and heartfelt story about how in the remotest of places lives can be lost … and found.
