Book Description

In the blazing heart of the Australian outback, survival is a matter of grit, luck, and sheer willpower. Welcome to the opal  fields—where fortunes are won and lost, and the land itself is as unforgiving as it is mesmerising. For those drawn to the hunt for precious stones, the desert offers both promise and peril.

When a man awakens alone, injured, and with no memory of who he is, he finds himself stranded in a vast, sun-baked wilderness. Hunted by relentless dingoes and haunted by questions he cannot answer, he must summon every ounce of determination to drag himself toward the faint hope of shelter. As the merciless landscape tests his body and spirit, he faces not only the dangers of the wild but the torment of his own forgotten past.

Raw, gripping, and unflinching, this story plunges you into the extremes of human endurance and the stark beauty of the Australian desert. Will he find salvation—or will the outback claim another lost soul?

The author grew up in war-torn, starving just like Tyke. Living in the back of lorries, trying to get by the best he could, a family of twelve, a story for each one of us.
