The Moxon sisters are well known in Flaxdale, distinguishable from other locals by their size, their shape, and the colour of their hair: razor-short peroxide, stripped lifeless and straw-like.

This is a novel in which you will meet some extraordinary characters – the Moxon sisters, Max Bloody Tapper – and find at least three layers of story. Outwardly, it's all quite simple – Rick has a bit of a mid-life crisis and Hazel carries on coping. But as the two work through their break-up and its fall-out – Rick in Australia and Hazel in New Zealand – events at a country swimming-hole one summer long ago begin to haunt them both.
