Produktbeschreibung

Jack Johnson is both lucky and unlucky. He survives the Vietnam war as a decorated helicopter pilot, marries the girl he left behind, and lands on his feet at Australia's leading advertising agency, as a launch pad to spectacular success in the industry. Lucky, you might say. But luck can change. Jack is hit with a bogus criminal charge that chases him into the Great Australian Desert, in a quest for Lasseter's fabled gold reef. But Jack is not the only one looking. A mysterious Chinese company called Triple Eight is buying up leases in the desert, and people are dying. Back home, he leaves not only a heartbroken wife but a beautiful and very determined daughter who has had her own problems. Expelled from Australia's most prestigious public school, Tess Johnson vows to clear her father's name. Lasseter's Truth follows them both as they take on the odds. A story that ranges from the greed of the nineties, into a famous legend of Australia's outback, with a compelling climax for our own time.
