Jo will be Launching her new book this morning at the Iluka Emporium. Come along and meet the Author, ask about the book, her characters, her inspirations and why she chooses to write in Iluka.

Here is a teaser from the book:
Sisters Fin and George navigate their love/hate relationship growing up in a highly dysfunctional family. Their father Victor moves them to an isolated rural property outside Brisbane where his dreams to create an idyllic rural retreat crumble while his family tiptoe around his unpredictable moods.
Fin leaves the moment she can and becomes a compassionate palliative care nurse, helping people to leave this world but unable to bring her own child into it.
