'Great Opportunity for the Right Applicants: Western Australia. Housekeeper/companions required. Would suit young couple. Remote, rural location. Cooking, cleaning, gardening and caring duties. Applicants must be self-sufficient and resourceful.' Cassie is at a turning point. She wants a child and a bigger commitment from Graham, her artist boyfriend. A year away with him, in the wilds of Australia, could be just the answer. The enigmatic Larry Drake and his strange wife Mara live in Woolagong, an immense farm at the edge of the desert. It is a place of bleak, breathtaking landscape, a world far away from civilization and London. But its open remoteness can make Woolagong a dangerous prison. And the more Graham and Cassie begin to uncover the dark secrets of their mysterious employers, the more trapped they feel. Filled with suspense and menace, As Far As You Can Go is a riveting psychological drama from the acclaimed Lesley Glaister.
