About this ebook
Ape stepped up toe to toe with Falco. Brad stepped in, but Falco gently pushed him aside. Brad hadn't seen what Falco had seen in Ape's eyes the night before.
Welcome to bunkhouse five – it's a scene of power struggles, hidden agendas and psychodramas.
There's Brad with the troubled past, and fat, harmless Mountain-Man Singh. There's spineless Anthony Cannucia – and charismatic, dangerous Ape who keeps constant pressure on the group.
And there's Falco – who never wanted to come on camp in the first place; who has enough to deal with at home.
He has just been made leader.
Ape looked at the others. 'Now that he's been blooded, our fearless leader fears no man!'
About the author
Archimede Fusillo, the son of Italian migrants, was born and grew up in Melbourne. Surrounded by wonderful storytellers, he learnt early on the value of stories in shaping our lives and connecting people, irrespective of backgrounds.
Success with short stories about growing up in a multicultural Melbourne led Archie to try his hand at writing a novel. In 1997 his first novel, Sparring With Shadows, was a Notable Children's Book Council of Australia book and went on to be shortlisted for the Italy in the World Literature Awards. He followed this up with The Dons and later Last of the Braves, among others.
Apart from writing full time, Archie loves fishing with his son, shopping with his wife and daughter, and getting away to the Victorian south coast as often as his busy travelling schedule and domineering cat allow.
