Description: "It is 1952 and strange events are taking place in Loam, a small settlement in rural Canterbury, New Zealand. Ralph Randal, his wife Irena and their three daughters have immigrated to the area from England, but as they settle in, the curiosity of Clover, a neighbouring farm girl, is aroused. An air of mystery surrounds the English family, and Ralph Randal appears to dote excessively on his lovely eighteen-year-old daughter, Satina. Meanwhile young drover Arlo Reed turns heads, and as a flooding river follows its old course, the tortured bond between Ralph and Satina frays. What is really happening to cause an unsettling shadow of gloom to enshroud the community"--Back cover.
