A girl they know has disappeared, and as the day unfolds, Jack's eruptions of panic, Lou's sultry rebellions and their little sister Phoebe's attention-seeking push the family towards revelation. Twenty years later, the Bright children have remained close to the cliff edges, russet sand and moody ocean of their childhood. Behind the beautiful surfaces of their daily lives lies the difficult landscape of their past, always threatening to break through. And then, one night in late summer, they return to the house on the cliff... Gripping and evocative, Bluebottle is a story where darkness is found both in the iconic setting as well as in the disturbing behaviour of one of the family. Competition open to Australian & NZ residents only, entries close 10am AEST Monday 7 May, twenty advance copies to giveaway across Facebook & Instagram with winners announced in the comments, good luck! |
