A family saga set in Perth that tells the tale of two different families living in one strange and haunting ramshackle house from the end of the war until 1964. Totally absorbing as the lives twist and turn interacting all the way to the end. The Lambs and the Pickles are great characters and I wish it had carried on to epic proportions as I didn't want to leave them behind as I closed the book.
