Publisher Description
Russell's an honest person with a simple do unto others approach to life. Unfortunately others aren't so kind as to reciprocate. This mistreatment rearranges his mind and he ends up doing the two worst things possible. Having had a gutful of the law and institution food, he takes his future by the handlebars and peddles towards the light as fast as possible. He's picked up on a lonely road by Jack who takes him to the tiny idiosyncratic outlaw settlement of Galah. There he hides waiting for the police.
The police do show up, however Russell's new found friends spirit him away until the coppers go home.
Russell returns to Galah to cement his position in the community by deception and revenge. It works. He feels at home for the first time in his life and sets about perfecting the art of doing nothing ... and then things start to unravel again. It's a warm hearted novel with lots of funny spots.
