The Better Son
Fullers Bookshop
1952. Tasmania. The green, rolling hills of the dairy town Mole Creek have a dark underside. For two young brothers, a hidden cave a short walk from the family farm seems the perfect escape from their abusive, shell-shocked father — until the older brother goes missing.
Fifty years later, Kip — now an award-winning scientist — has a young son of his own, but cannot look at him without seeing his lost brother, Tommy.
Following on from her first novel, Pescador’s Wake, Hobart author Katherine Johnson returns with a rich story about the danger of secrets and the beauty of forgiveness.
Join us for the launch of The Better Son at Fullers Bookshop.
