The rims of his eyes were red-raw, his hair was matted, he hadn't shaved since knocking at her door, when he'd been clean-shaven - one of the few details she remembered of that blurred encounter. 'I know why you're avoiding me. Whoever told the cops told you, too.'It's 1970, and young Annette Cooley is part of a small team working on an archaeological dig on the New South Wales south coast - a site that appears to prove that Aboriginal societies in the late Holocene were becoming less nomadic, even sedentary. The discovery is thrilling in its significance, and the atmosphere in the group is one of charged excitement. The team is led by a husband-and-wife pair, stars in their field, Aled Wray and Marilyn Herr, and working on their sites promises to be the making of Annette as an archaeologist.On a new site, linked to the first, Annette starts to fall for a fellow student, Brian Harpur. But there are strange tensions and a hidden darkness within the group. Then one of their party mysteriously disappears. When police arrive, Annette makes a decision that will irrevocably mark her life, and Brian Harpur's.Written in simple, beautiful prose, and with great depth and moral complexity, The Beach Caves is a powerful story about jealousy, guilt, the choices we make, and the different paths our lives could have taken - shadow paths, which nevertheless leave a trace.

Book
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. This book is in excellent condition This book tells of the assassination of Hal Franklin, a District Commissioner in PNG in 1971 - based on fact and constituting the only political assassination in Australian history. The story is narrated in the first person by David Apps, a bright young kiap, keen to make his mark on the country, and who, working for Franklin, comes under his charismatic spell. Apps is slowly corrupted, emotionally and morally, by the power of ruling. On a murder patrol he takes some carvings which after their sale back in Sydney allow him to become a successful property developer. His report to Franklin on the patrol is a masterfully rendered cover-up. The subtle erosion of Apps' moral principles, and his relationship with Franklin, is the thematic core of the book, and this human drama is a microcosm of a much larger national drama involving the betrayal of a whole country by its colonial master, Australia, as the pressure to return land to its indigenous owners is resisted by whites who have held that land for almost a century. Over all these events looms the shadow of PNG Independence. This novel is critically acclaimed as one of the best written and most important colonial novels to come out of Australia. 280pp.
