'Korunah wagara:mana tagara.'Eagle fly:I follow. When ten-year-old Ellie is taken from the family farm in the Huon Valley, no-one imagines that her abductor is an indigenous man whose people have lived deep in the Tasmanian Wilderness for over 150 years, shunning all contact with the modern world. As rescue fails to materialise, Ellie learns to assimilate with the Meelayginnee but her presence soon threatens their very existence. Sometimes lyrical, sometimes brutal in the telling, S. PITT explores the values of ancient and modern societies in this compelling novel set in remote S.W. Tasmania.

S. PITT is a British/Australian writer of long and short, mainly historical, fiction. She has won several awards for her short stories, most recently for Ice-bear which was short-listed for the Historical Novel Society's 2016 Short Story Award and included in the anthology Distant Echoes. Her 'Cli-fi' novel, The Boy Who Found Salt, was short-listed for the 2020 London Book Fair 'The Write Stuff' Competition. Widely travelled, S.

A recurrent theme in all her writing is the interplay of historical events, landscape and mythology.
