Book Description
Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Pages are sunned.
Once a fortnight, Fred Crawford drives his battered truck on the toughest mail run in the world - across sand dunes, salt pans and the fearsome Stony Desert. For the men and women of the remote cattle stations on the way, Fred's visit is a welcome diversion, especially when he brings a new nursing sister to the tiny mission hospital at Birdsville.
But trouble also arrives. Two vicious men have stowed away, fleeing a brutal murder. Alice to Nowhere is the story of desperate men and lonely people. It is an action-packed drama played out under the awesome influence of the vast emptiness of the Australian outback. (back cover)
