Blood

It's 1991. Rob Ross, an ad executive, is suffering a moral crisis in his high rise office when his dead father slips through the window to ask Rob to help film an exposé of the Darwin bombing. Rob finds himself catapulted back to 1942...

It's 1964. Selena Wakefield has just given birth. Startled awake, she finds her baby gone...

Also featuring an invisible crocodile, a talking severed hand, singing paintings and big wave surfing off the wild coast of Tasmania, this work will keep you guessing.

Blood is a far-reaching and multi-layered work that must be read to be believed. Kay’s clean, sharp prose and poignant voice transport the reader through different times, places and points of view as smoothly as a time machine. Playfully eccentric in places and heart-achingly sad in others, with a dark, comedic vein lying just below the surface, Blood is an exceptional work of fiction.
