博客來In brilliant and jeweled writing this revelatory new crime novel will become a modern Australian classic.
It has a very surprising location, and a devastating criminal outcome. Have you ever been to such an apparently safe ’alternative’ music escape-away festival? Have you wondered what it would be like? Many have ventured. But for one wannabe-hippy it was ’THE END’.
HIP-HAVEN was meant to be a serenely wonderful, peaceful, harmonious, and entirely free festival. Through the bush landscape of red gum trees, red terracotta and under a million stars there was to be a shared scene of tranquility and harmony, music, and the possibility and promise of better times. With drug- available camping under beautifully oriental lights, middle-eastern drapes, red and gold cushions, throbbing music, and with the happy murmur of people - family, lovers, friends and festival buddies - in the warm evening. and every kind of relaxation.
With clothing optional, those taking part happily exchanging names including Shakra, Roxy Rocky-Rock, O-Shaan, Zeus, Onyx and Nimrod. Feeling trustingly special at an alluring event. ’This is real life’ one said. BUT THEN...
Follow ’the happenings’!
