Report

'You are likely to be so distracted by [the beauty of the writing] that you realise you have missed the story ... and the only thing to do is go back and start all over again. If ever a book deserved to become a classic, The Ripping Tree does' The Canberra Times
'An immersive tale of intrigue, friendship and female independence. Think Sofia Coppola's The Beguiled meets Peter Weir's Picnic at Hanging Rock' Sydney Morning Herald
'A beautifully descriptive yet unsettling tale of survival' Herald Sun
'Nikki Gemmell's new novel proceeds in full knowledge of the ways antipodean place corresponds to older Gothic tropes. And it manipulates these, often superbly, to replenish the ability of the genre to shock and disturb ... it is designed to thrill and entertain. But it also reminds us that this continent remains unsettling to those who settled it. Gemmell has always had a deft touch for narrative. Here she takes the panoply of effects Gothic has to offer and drives them till they are blowing froth and bleeding at the flanks' The Australian
