The Backpackers Guide to Australia (Paperback)

Leaving a troubled life in Ireland to go travelling in Australia, things take an unexpected turn after a chance meeting with a mysterious girl. Witness to a double homicide, she is being hunted by a high profile gang involved in illegal immigration in Melbourne. They are pursued along the east coast, enlisting the help of the backpacking community along the way. As her story develops, they realise that events on the morning that the shootings took place suggest that the police are also involved. Not knowing who to trust, or how high up the chain it goes, they enlist the help of a sympathetic journalist who has written extensively on the subject in the broadsheets in Melbourne. As the chase continues, they struggle to stay one step ahead of their pursuers, always looking over their shoulder, finding help amongst like-minded travellers and eventually from a place he never expected. This journey takes them from Sydney to Cairns, from sunsets on golden sandy beaches to sunrises on Fraser Island and Cape Byron, from night-time car chases to being hunted through the centre of Brisbane by gun wielding criminals, but always finding solace amongst their own. Each of them will take their own personal voyage as the story unfolds. This is a story of friendship, loyalty, love and betrayal, and the girl that a lot of people need silenced.
