About this ebook
Aaron absconds after recognising his face in a police identity kit. Caradoc, wedded to his work, feels he has few options available to him after learning of his dismissal and returns to the small rural town of his boyhood. Against a backdrop of the dramatic and rugged Australian Sapphire Coast, the two men seek to start anew. Their paths converge and friendships form as they find solace in the natural environment, their love of the ocean, understanding their sense of place, and learning to appreciate their immediate surroundings.
Motivated by a need to belong, yet continuing to address notions of disconnection, the draw of family is strong. Relationships are tested as they must confront their pasts. Can we atone for and escape our former lives?
