A darkly humorous tale of rural isolation, violence, and a talking magpie.Tama is rescued by Marnie, but her husband Rob warns, 'If it keeps me awake, I'll have to wring its neck.' With Tama come new possibilities, but also a glimpse into the darkness of Marnie's marriage. As Tama's fame grows, the animal and human worlds intertwine, revealing the fragility and hope within. Set against the backdrop of a remote New Zealand farm, this literary fiction explores themes of domestic abuse, manipulation, and the search for connection. Will Tama's unique perspective be enough to save Marnie, or will the approaching Axeman's Carnival bring everything crashing down? Perfect for readers seeking suspenseful, character-driven stories with rural gothic elements and New Zealand settings.
