About this product

Product Information

Kerrie, in her 40s, has just lost her famous sculptor husband who had been the centre of her existence and for whom she made many sacrifices and she now finds her life has lost direction. Shirley, approaching 80, was betrayed by her lover many years before and has retreated from the world, becoming a recluse living in an underground dugout. Anna, 19, has a promising athletic career but is torn between the commitment to her sport which could carry her to the Olympics, or enjoying life like other young people. The friendship that develops between these three women, who meet in the strangely beautiful but desolate landscape of the opal fields, helps them resolve and come to terms with the next stage of their lives.

    Hidden secrets revealed!

    Alongside a really good story is a lot of educational information about Opal Mining - the good, bad and ugly side of mining, the miners, buyers & sellers and those associated with these hidden gems. It gives one a very good insight into yet another side of this amazing country!
