AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Leigh Creek has depended on its mine since, like, forever and a day. But when Liddy, a teenage alien obsessive, and her mum arrive in town seeking escape, they find a community collapsing in on itself with the impending mine closure. Liddy swiftly connects with Badar, a witty, cynical 15 year old just like her. An outsider just like her. A lover of sci-fi, just like her.
'The two newly crowned best friends explore what is fast becoming a ghost town, embracing their difference and celebrating their shared eccentricities. But when Badar disappears, Liddy must search back through her recent past to find the point where reality and fantasy divide.'
