Another beautiful visit with the almost idyllic couple Dave and Nicholas. There is a good deal of native Aboriginal mysticism woven through this story as Dave tries to save the watering hole from a mining company. We are also introduced to Nick's nephew Robin and his ideas of a pure, sexless love for Nick. We get to see the raw beauty which is Australia during an opal mining tour. Written perfectly in Ms Bozza's descriptive style the reader feels as though they have discovered something magical. ( )
