This is her latest blockbuster which has again been signed up for a HBO series starring Nicole Kidman. Nine lives, nine completely different characters meet at a retreat in the middle of nowhere, set in the Australian outback. One of the main characters is Frances, a writer of romantic novels. She arrives having recently had her heart broken and is reeling from a negative review of her last book. On arrival Frances is desperate to embrace the retreat for the next 10 days, but retains a slight scepticism of her fellow guests. The other eight characters descend with their emotional baggage and each one narrates their tale of woe. All have one thing in common, they need to escape from everyday life and to heal in one way or another. The staff in the retreat are there to look after their spiritual and health needs. To keep them safe, to ensure they come to no harm whilst they stay at Tranquillum House… but all is not quite what it appears to be… HB out now, signed copies will be available.
