Description
Ruby’s aging lover has died in the kitted-out tray of his Hilux Ute, gassed on a beach in Darwin; Trish’s lover has done a bunk from their roadside store in the Daintree; Patricia is on a bus, heading North into the night, running from a faded and seedy past; and Jonah is an angry boy from Alice Springs who has made a terrible mistake. When their journeys collide at the Three Ways truck stop in the Northern Territory, everyone’s destination will change.
