> Fiction Books > General Books

"I'll tell you something, something important. Love is a decision. Not a feeling. That's what you young people don't realise. That's why you're always off divorcing each other. No offence, dear."

So decrees the formidable Connie Thrum of Scribbly Gum Island. She is the chief decision-maker of a rather unconventional family and her word is law.

It's been over seventy years since Connie and her sister Rose visited their neighbours and found the kettle boiling and a baby waking for her feed, but no sign of her parents. The Munro Baby Mystery still hasn't been solved and tourists can visit the abandoned home, exactly as it was found in 1932.

But now Connie has passed away and the island residents ponder her legacy. Sophie Honeywell is looking down the barrel of her fortieth birthday and still hoping for that fairytale ending. Her beautiful new friend Grace, the Munro Baby's grand daughter, can't tell anyone what she hopes for. It would be too shocking.

Meanwhile, a frumpy housewife makes a pact with a stranger, an old lady starts making her own decisions and a family secret finally explodes on an extraordinary night of mulled wine, fire-eating and face-painting - the Last Anniversary.

About the Author: Liane Moriarty

Liane Moriaty is an Australian author, and sister of author Jaclyn. She was one of six children, and grew up in Sydney. Her father would 'commission' the children to write books, paying up to $1.50 for an full exercise book, not bad for kids in the seventies.

She has previously worked in marketing and advertising, and hints that she took it all too seriously, constantly worried about the size of her office. She briefly ran her own agency, and then worked as a freelance advertising copywriter.
While studying at Macquarie University, she wrote her first (published) novel, Three Wishes, as part of the course. It was picked up in Australia, and subsequently released in the UK and US.

Now a full time writer, she still lives in Sydney with her husband, and children, George and Anna.
