1 1 y separately published work icon Beware of Dogs Elizabeth Flann , Sydney : HarperCollins Australia , 2021 20231000 2021 single work novel thriller 'She's isolated. Trapped. Hunted. An almost unbearably tense Australian survival thriller.

'Not much daylight left now.

'So begins the field diary of Alix Verhoeven, whose impulsive acceptance of an offer to spend Easter on a remote island has turned into a terrifying ordeal. Hiding in a tiny cave, she carefully rations out her meagre supplies, while desperately trying to figure out how to escape the men hunting her. She is determined not to be a victim.

'What do they want with her? She knows it's nothing good - she overheard enough on that first night to flee. But now she's got little food or water, no way of calling for help, and only her skills as an exploration geologist and memories of Atkinson's Guide to Bushcraft to survive.

'By day she is disciplined and lives by strict plans, but at night she finds herself haunted by questions about her life that she has never wanted to face, and slowly this begins to unravel her.

'With time running out, she is forced to take tremendous risks in order to stand even the slightest chance of getting away.' (Publication summary)
3 3 y separately published work icon The Australian Editing Handbook Elizabeth Flann , Beryl Hill , Canberra : Australian Government Publishing Service , 1994 Z558636 1994 single work non-fiction

'The modern editor must go beyond editing and proofreading, and is often tasked with obtaining permissions, sourcing supplementary material and keeping the author on schedule and on budget. That means the editor is also the ultimate mediator of style and propriety for the piece, acting as gatekeeper between the author and the public. It's a substantial role, requiring the fundamental knowledge of several different fields to achieve effective results. A guide to managing each aspect of the job, The Australian Editing Handbook is an invaluable resource.' (Source: TROVE website)
