Girl Alone

by Lucy Walker

Mardie Forester is overjoyed to inherit a tiny store, miles from the nearest settlement in the Western Australian desert.
But her peace of mind in her new retreat is soon broken by a mysterious man who comes to buy stores only after dark, and never so much as glances at Mardie.
‘Mr Mystery Man’ she calls him, before she learns he is Jard Hunter, a geologist at the nearby Mining Exploration Camp.
Why, she asks herself, does he bother her so?
Can this be love…?
