When Ellie arranges to go on a camping trip with a group of friends it is supposed to just be a week of fun before they have to go back to normal school life. The last thing they expect is to come home to a town that has been deserted, the phones aren't working, there is no electricity and their fa...
I listened to the audiobook of this from the library and thought it was a good story. I like listening to stories narrated by Aussies.The story doesn't exactly finish, because it's a series, so now I'm interested to know what happens in the next book. I watched the movie tonight and, overall, it did...

But I wasn't a teenager in the early Nineties in rural Victoria, so it's not that surprising. It was slow to start and I never warmed to the narrator, though Marsden does a fair enou...
