AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Saturday night. Nowheresville.

'Adam Prince is smouldering. He has lived his whole life in Splitters Creek and knows every face at the hotel. At eighteen, the lack of air in his small-town home, a leaky old family and the rising damp of a future without hope are choking the fire of his life.

'Adam needs to escape. To fly. To break free of a life dogged by sorrow.

'But no matter how far he runs, will there always be gravity pulling him back?'
