Communism is strangling her country, forcing the bold writer to make a difficult decision. It was time to abandon her home, her beloved family, and her boyfriend, Attila Paprika, an insecure pessimist who measures his manhood with drinking contests and grueling mountain bike rides. For reasons of his own, Attila surprises Anna by joining her in a daring escape to England. After the couple is blessed with a daughter, Anna is mysteriously drawn to Australia, land of prosperity and opportunity. Enjoying the good life as new immigrants, they have no idea that a monster is lurking in their neighbourhood. Life will never be the same as it twists into a disturbing tale of fear and survival.
