 Text -

      
The Book of Chance
Sue Whiting 		      
                   
               "This complex narrative is set south of Sydney in Wollongong, significantly far away from where the main character Chance Callahan started her life. Suspense and tension are deftly created through the use of a flashback device. Themes of honesty and truth underpin the events." CBCA Judges  
 
 NOTE: To get the most from this recorded session, have a copy of this book handy or at least be familiar with the text.
