    About this ebook

    As a cop, Roy never looked the other way…

     

    Until that one time…

     

    Soon, looking the other way became his job…

     

    Shouldn't that have made his life easier?

     

    Detective Roy Wudestoke is a prisoner. What started as a simple security job has turned into a life of isolation and misery.

     

    At first, it was easy. He spent his days sitting in a rocking chair, guarding a residential block, while his colleagues broke their backs doing actual police work.

     

    Then the neighbors all decided to move, and Roy followed the money.

     

    The neighborhood followed them all. Upon moving across the country, Roy found himself living in the same house guarding the same block.

     

    Over the years, the neighbors and Roy, moved again and again. Each time, the neighborhood was identical to the previous one.

     

    Along the way, the deaths started. And Roy said nothing. The neighbors truly owned his soul.

     

    Is it too late for Roy to do the right thing? Find out in The Long Game, a companion novella to Neighbors.

      Christos Tsiolkas: ‘I Don’t Understand Wanting To Live A Youthful Life Forever’

      Nov 3, 2023

      “It is in capturing the quotidian nature of a city that one finds its soul,” Christos Tsiolkas once wrote, and perhaps but for Helen Garner, no other author has captured life in Melbourne as truthfully. It feels oddly thrilling to meet the 58-year-ol
