At 44, Susan Duncan appeared to have it all. Editor of two top-selling women's magazines, a happy marriage, a jetsetting lifestyle covering stories from New York to Greenland, the world was her oyster. But when her beloved husband and brother die within three days of each other, her glittering life shatters. In shock, she zips on her work face, climbs back into her high heels and soldiers on - until one morning eighteen months later, when she simply can't get out of bed. Heartbreaking, funny and searingly honest, "Salvation Creek" is the story of a woman who found the courage not only to begin again but to beat the odds in her own battle for survival and find a new life - and love - in a tiny waterside idyll cut off from the outside world. Combining all the sweeping, rollercoaster style of a bestselling novel with the very best - and most inspiring - human interest story, "Salvation Creek" is a tour-de-force that will stay with the reader long after she has turned the last page.
About the Author
After a twenty-five year career that spanned radio, newspaper and magazines, including editing two of Australia's top-selling women's magazines, Susan Duncan moved to a tiny coastal retreat (Salvation Creek), just north of Sydney, which is only accessible by boat.

A no-frills look at life: it's ironies, heartaches and unfairness. Both beautifully and honestly written in a manner that will touch anyones heart that has ever had to deal with the clammy tentacles of cancer. The descriptions of the scenery and folk of the Pittwater give an added dimension of perception. Plenty of glad moments but make sure you have a box of tissues handy too.
