Back in 1970 Patrick O'Connell was a travelling man; but he'd arrived home to the small town of Dungirri where he planned to stay awhile. Arriving at the dance hall for the evening's entertainment, he spotted the new school teacher in the middle of the floor. She had admirers all around her, everyone was having a wonderful time, laughing and dancing the night away.As Patrick made his way across to her, she turned when she heard his voice. Making their introductions to each other, Patrick could see Ruth was a vibrant young woman, with sparkling eyes to match her beautiful smile. As their conversation blossomed, the music kept them swaying in time to the waltz; he was happy and content...This is a sweet and beautiful short story tucked in around the other novels about Dungirri which Aussie author Bronwyn Parry has written. "As Darkness Falls", "Dark Country" and her almost released third in the trilogy "Darkening Skies". She is an author with a great talent for storytelling.
