✦ Synopsis

Perhaps not Andrew McGahan’s best – it’s hard to go past his first, Praise, or his Miles Franklin winner, The White Earth, for that – but his final book, published eight months after his tragically early death from cancer, is a riveting and strange haunted-house mystery set on a mountain emerging from the sea hundreds of kilometres south of Tasmania. All of McGahan’s books were different but they invariably reflected his interests in extreme weather, houses, nature and the sea. Walter Richman is the only man to have conquered the world’s highest peak and has now built an architect-designed home on an adjacent outcrop. When the late architect’s estranged daughter visits the house to see the completed project, she senses a restless presence that is gradually threatening the lives of everyone present. But why and how?
