The outback doesn’t forgive—but sometimes, it teaches what it means to belong.
In the scorched heart of post-war Australia, Jimmy is a young man running from ghosts—his father’s silence, his own past, and a country still learning who it is. When an Aboriginal stockman takes him in, the red earth becomes more than a backdrop; it becomes a teacher, a test, and a kind of salvation.
But one letter holds a truth that could tear it all apart—and force Jimmy to choose between the world he left behind and the one that saved him.
This is more than historical fiction. It’s a story of survival, love, and belonging that dives deep into the ways of a First Nations Mob—showing how culture and spirit can bridge divides and heal wounds that refuse to stay buried.
Perfect for readers of The Thorn Birds, Pillars of the Earth, and The Light Between Oceans, Outback Odyssey is a novel you won’t forget.
