COMING on JANUARY 7

Two brothers.

One impossible girl.

An unspeakable tragedy.

TELL ME SOMETHING TRUE is an emotional epic about love, loss, heartbreak and murder, set in a small country town in Australia. It is Michael’s most autobiographical book to date and one that he began writing forty years ago.

I look along the road and notice how many people are standing outside their houses or watching from doorways and windows. Staring. Studying.

‘Do you think this town will ever forgive me?’ I ask.

‘Not in a million years.’
