AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'The Beach House is a superbly written novel set in the small Queensland town of Sunset Point. Nothing much happens here, which is just the way the locals like it ... so when an outsider with grand plans threatens to demolish an iconic landmark and build a huge resort, the battle lines are drawn. Young journalist Jessica hopes to make it big with her coverage of the court case, but first she has to appease her editor and put a human interest spin on the situation. At first glance the five people she chooses to background have very little in common; but it soon becomes apparent that staying at The Beach House has changed all of them in some way.'
