- In country Victoria in the 1980s Australian cult leader Anne Hamilton-Byrne stole blond, blue-eyed children and 'raised' them to prepare them for the new world she intended to deliver.
- This novel uses that historical reality as its fictional setting. The insidious evil of this cult was the cruelty its delusions visited upon the innocent, and its aftermath.
- Pomare captures the emotional and psychological damage the children suffered and that followed them through adult life, years after their release. He has written a very well constructed, pacy thriller, with plenty of jolts, surprises and twists along the way.
- It's hard to put down, holding your interest right to the delicious end.
