> Fiction Books > General Books

Three children wake up in a basement room. They have been drugged and taken from their beds in the middle of the night. Now they are alone.

Where are their parents? Who can they trust? The family has been betrayed to the government and Salt Cottage, their home on a clifftop above the ocean, is no longer safe. Their mother's scientific work has put them all in danger. To protect them, she must let them go. She must put her faith in an old family friend -- and in her children's own resilience and courage.

Searing, provocative and unputdownable, THE BOOK OF RAPTURE is a novel of our time that's every bit as passionate and driven as THE BRIDE STRIPPED BARE. It will compel, seduce and haunt you.

RRP: $24.99

About the Author: Nikki Gemmell

Nikki Gemmell (born 1966) is an Australian author, best known for anonymously writing the best-selling erotic novel The Bride Stripped Bare. Gemmell was born in Wollongong, New South Wales. She has worked as a radio journalist for ABC Radio in Sydney, New South Wales, Darwin, Northern Territory, Alice Springs, Northern Territory, at Triple J, the ABC's youth network and as a producer for the BBC World Service.
She wrote three novels: Shiver, Cleave and Love Song, before the 2003 publication of The Bride Stripped Bare, which became an international bestseller. Although published anonymously, Gemmell was soon identified as the author. Gemmell's searching narratives have led the French to compare her to hail her as a "female Jack Kerouac"; critics in the United States have hailed her as one of the few truly original literary voices to emerge in a long time. The influential Francophone literary journal Lire included her in a list of the 50 international writers it believes will have "a significant influence on the literature of the 21st century". The writers - selected by a group of editors - were chosen for their "originality of subject", "individual voice" and "unmistakeable style".
