Six years ago, Mina saved a fox in the bush. As thunder growled and lightning flashed, she thought she saw... something.

Now, as graduation draws near and Mina plots her escape from backcountry Jilamatang to big-city Sydney, the town trembles. Two children, stolen from near their school. An elderly woman, missing. Mina wants to ignore it all, to focus on leaving her mother's depression behind for good.

But the connection? More personal than she could ever imagine.

If you love the romance of Maggie Stiefvater's The Wolves of Mercy Falls and the family dynamics of Melina Marchetta's Saving Francesca, get ready to fall in love with A Fox Of Storms And Starlight, a richly-imagined story about love, mental illness, and the value of family.
