First published in 1998 and written for young adults, a tale of murder and prejudice from the Miles Franklin Award-winning author of Too Much Lip.
Angry young Koori Darcy Mango is on parole and looking for his mob in Northern New South Wales. Befriending the Menzies family wasn't at all what he had in mind, but then neither was the old house hidden in the bush near Desperation Creek. Why does the camera from the house take pictures of the past? It's Darcy's fate to find out.
