MEREDITH WEBBER lives on the sunny Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia, but takes regular trips west into the Outback, fossicking for gold or opal. These breaks in the beautiful and sometimes cruel red earth country provide her with an escape from the writing desk and a chance for her mind to roam freeânot to mention getting some much needed exercise. They also supply the kernels of so many stories that itâs hard for her to stop writing!

EMMA CRAWFORD LOOKED anxiously out the kitchen window as she added milk to two small bowls of cereal. Above the tree-line she could see smoke growing thicker but the latest news broadcast had assured her that the bushfires raging through the national park on the outskirts of Braxton were still many miles away, and the town itself wasnât in danger.
Bushfires were the last thing sheâd considered when sheâd agreed with her father that a return to the town where heâd been born and grown up would be a good thing. Being able to bring up the boys in a country town had seemed like a wonderful idea, but it had been the thought of the spacious old home, recently left to her father by an aged aunt, that had held the most appeal.
Well, that and a kernel of an idea that had been germinating deep inside her...
Forget that for the moment! The move had been practical and that was what was most important.
City living was all very well, but the prices in Sydney had meant the four of themâher father, the two boys and herselfâhad been crammed into an apartment that had shrunk as the babies turned to toddlersâgrowing every day.
No, Braxton, with its district hospital willing to offer her a job in its emergency department, the surrounding national park, a beautiful beach an hourâs drive away, and best of all the rambling old house in its magical, neglected gardens just perfect for two adventurous little boys, had been extremely appealing.
And they had bushfires in Sydney, too, she reminded herself, to shake off the feeling of foreboding the smoke had caused.
She deposited the bowls of cereal on the trays of the highchairs and smiled at the angelic faces of her three-year-old twins, Xavier and Hamish. She was off to work and it was her father whoâd be cleaning up the mess that two little horrors could achieve with bowls of cereal.
