Description
An organisation called The Cleaners is making threats, days before the Australia Day holiday in Sydney. An Aboriginal protester was murdered the year before. Lost in the emotional quicksand of marital breakup, journalist Alex Tolman finds himself caught up in the events. Written with page-turning energy, but with a flair that allows the reader to linger and savour, this intricately plotted novel is a cross-weave of romantic discord, family dysfunction, class tension and Indigenous politics.
