博客來When Locrian Smythe’s father dies, he must leave Sydney for the family property in rural New South Wales to resolve the matter of the will. It is only once he arrives at his isolated childhood home that he finds himself plagued with the ghosts of his past, and is forced to confront a terrible tragedy that befell the family long ago. Nothing is what it seems as the line between memory and reality becomes inexplicably blurred. Meanwhile, Locrian finds himself enamoured by the mysterious Lydia, whose flighty charisma seems to conceal more than she would reveal.
A family saga spanning a generation, Australian Gothic explores the lengths people will go to protect themselves and the ones they love from the suffering beset by the indifferent horrors of life itself.
