MATILDA BOOKSHOP REVIEW

This is the utterly compelling story of two women who awake from a drugged sleep to find themselves improsoned on a broken down outback property. Verla and Yolanda have no idea why they have been captured, but slowly we learn the awful truth. A howl of fury against misogyny, this novel will shock and unsettle. But what a brilliant read! Molly
