Talking Aussie Books with Jill Staunton

Jill Staunton is a North Queensland-based author of two novels, "Reiver's Moon" and "All That He Is". Both published by Boolarong Press. "All That He Is" was released late last year and boy oh boy, what a terrific read! This novel grabbed me from its opening pages and didn't let go until the very end. It had everything you want in a book: a cast of wonderfully depicted, strong and relatable characters, a rich plot, an incredible setting and vivid sense of place; mystery, suspense and a heart-wrenching love story to boot. It's a book that offers an enthralling glimpse into life in the outback, the impact of loss and trauma on our war veterans and hidden threats to our natural environment. I was absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to chat with Jill about "All That He Is" recently for the podcast.
