A review by shelleybaird
Wild Place by Christian White

4.0

Once again, Christian White has crafted a cracking story that kept me guessing until the end!

Set at the end of 1989, White has captured an era where the influence of American culture was really being felt in suburban Australia. The so-called 'threat' of heavy metal music, the US sitcoms, Jane Fonda video workouts and the endless Christmas school holidays.

Using a cast of well-characterised suburbanites who I could picture with ease, this story will draw you in and make you think about how good people, when desperate, can do bad things.
