A PLACE NEAR EDEN by Nell Pierce

A Place Near Eden explores the concept of truth, the flaws in memory and family, and the Australian adoption and foster system set against the backdrop of the rugged Australian coastline.

Part absorbing mystery, part riveting family drama, A Place Near Eden is a story of the pursuit of truth and the ways we fail those we love.
