This dazzling account of an Aboriginal man coming to terms with his roots is a refreshing and convincing antidote to all the usual interpretations of this wonderful culture. It has a sweep and ambition that is rare. Have you lost your lore? Billy has. He's loreless. Indigenous urbanite Billy doesn't know much about his heritage and he's quite content to let it stay that way. One late night out changes all that. Marooned on an outback highway in Central Australia, with only the stars and mosquitoes for company, he regrets trusting his friends with his well being. Under the watchful eye of the mysterious supernatural entity Pidgin and armed with a dogged desire to get home, he discovers the lore he never knew he had lost. Sometimes it's impossible to get home.

Beautiful, confrontational and ultimately uplifting, this is a story which is intimate and universal all at once. Available now in ebook or paperback. Read this inspiring and remarkable story today.
