CHRISSIE THE ENIGMA

A woman, trapped everyday inside her crumbling mildewing bungalow in Far North Queensland.

She believes she is nothing more than a slave to her nine year old daughter and her needs, and who, by her behaviour, seemingly hates her. Communication between the two has crumpled and the mother wonders constantly why she has been abandoned to her fate.

There was a time when she lived every minute of her day for her daughter, yet over time this his faded, and many hours have been wasted on the old stained couch, contemplating, smoking continuously, and staring at the brown tinged ceiling.

She realises she has to do something, otherwise her life will disappear, and she will be left being less than a nothing.

From nowhere an opportunity appears, she knows this can change her, and give her a future she so desperately seeks.

Then her little girl disappears, has she been snatched, murdered, vanished, or is there something else at play.

This intriguing novel is about the desire to change, greed, and winning no matter the cost.
