In the idyllic suburb of Flaming Tree Grove, a little girl sets off to visit her grandmother at the end of the street. But Ruby never arrives. In the aftermath of shock and suspicion, a package is left on her parents’ doorstep that contains more questions than answers...
With an army of enigmatic characters, Ruby Moon digs beneath the thin veneer of comfortable suburbia, uncovering the truth about the strangers who surround us – and the obsessions that dwell within us.
