Launceston, a colonial outpost on the southern Australian island of Tasmania, hovers on the brink of anarchy, teeming with revolutionaries, convicts, drunks, crooked cops, and poor strugglers looking for a break. Outlaw Thomas Toosey races to this dangerous bedlam to find his motherless twelve-year-old son before the city swallows the child whole, but he is pursued by more than just the law. Hindering his progress at every turn is a man to whom he owes a terrible debt: the vengeful Irishman Fitheal Flynn, whose hooded companion hides a grotesque secret . . . \u003cbr\u003eBased on real events, this prize-winning novel of vengeance and redemption, set against the sweeping, merciless grandeur of the frontier, \"brings to mind the prose of Cormac McCarthy, Joseph Conrad and William Faulkner  and] catapults us into the vicious, impoverished world of a colonial town in Tasmania\" (\u003ci\u003eMinneapolis Star-Tribune\u003c\/i\u003e). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Readers who admired the propulsive plotting, atmospheric sense of place, and fierce family loyalty in Patrick DeWitt's \u003ci\u003eThe Sisters Brothers\u003c\/i\u003e and Cormac McCarthy's \u003ci\u003eThe Road\u003c\/i\u003e should be equally taken with Wilson's superb novel.
