Synopsis

A rift seemed to have taken place. It was as if the town had slowly and silently split into two parts. Two opposing camps. Those who wanted to be with the Pastor - and those who did not.



When Vaughan Roberts' parents go overseas, he is dumped with his grandmother in an isolated coastal town. Vaughan longs to join the local gang of boys, but before he can, he must complete a frightening initiation - a seemingly impossible swim. Little does he know that he is a pawn in a terrifying ritual - and one he must fight to survive...

Media Reviews
Gripping stuff * Mizz *
Hathorn's razor-sharp understanding and way with words immerses the reader totally in this haunting book * Carousel *
...a deft and timely novel, chilling in its fictious reflection of our world in the last days of the twentieth century...Complex but not complicated... Rift draws you in with its seductive plot and carefully structured characters...Compelling anf provocative * Viewpoint 6 *
Beats your average 'adult' novel for sensuous detail, drama and a good gripping narrative * The Melbourne Age *
A good racy story...The fantasy is terrifyingly possible, the narrative never loses momentum and the complexity of human relationships is never glossed over * Courier-Mail *
