Beschreibung
Ilene, a working-class mother, is struggling to survive and desperate to reconnect with her children, Jack and Lonnie, in the aftermath of a near-fatal tragedy. But her children vanish, setting off a chain reaction within the community. Suspended detective Omar helps out with the investigation, uncovering disquieting clues, but he keeps getting pulled away by a dangerous cold case. Benji, a recovering addict, finds peace by breeding lorikeets and caring for his mother, only to have his clean life upended by a stranger's menacing threat. Nera, a city lawyer grieving on a country farm, wants to find out who killed one of her animals and is faced with increasingly strange and unsettling answers.In this gripping tale of human frailty and the other-worldly, each character must confront the mystery of what really happened to Jack and Lonnie. PRAISE FOR ALL THE MISSING CHILDREN: ';Gamieldien's prose is clear-eyed about the manifestations of trauma, visceral and uncanny in its observations of everyday life.' Meanjin
