'Immersive, urgent, hair-raising . . . It demands to be read in one sitting' COURIER-MAIL

'An electrifying and well-crafted Gothic thriller' THE AUSTRALIAN

The acclaimed bestseller from a stunning new Australian talent: The Farm ripples with the Gothic undertones of Rebecca and enthrals from the very first page.

When Leila suffers a health tragedy, her partner, James, suggests a year away from the city. They'll stay on his family farm, where the wide, open spaces and clean country air will help her come to terms with her grief.

But the property is remote and the house oppressive. Leila is disturbed by strange noises, fleeting visions and intrusive dreams. James worries that her medication is causing hallucinations.

As Leila's isolation grows amid the haunted landscape, so does her suspicion that she isn't the first woman James has relocated to the farm. Is what she's experiencing real? Or is it all in her head?

Compulsive and claustrophobic, The Farm asks timely questions about women's bodies, what is expected of them, and who is really in control.
