Produktbeschreibung

A secret plan is being cooked up to bring water from the monsoonal north of Australia to the south. But Government minister Michael Mooney needs to find out what opposition he might face around the river valley. He sends Kate Kennedy, his young, career-minded Chief of Staff, and political fixer Jack Cole on a 'fact-finding' trip. As The River Runs is a powerful ode to one of Australia's most stunning regions, from an author who writes with red dust in his veins.
