Lyn Yeowart and Carla Salmon

Lyn Yeowart has set her book in the not so distance past when unmarried mothers were a social disgrace and sent away to have their babies who were adopted. Years later there are murders ‘The Hollow Girl’ may be the perpetrator of these revenge killings .                  Sibling rivalry, arson attacks, a surf lifesaving competition and the threat of bushfires are the Australian touchstones activated by Carla Salmon in her adolescent novel, 'We Saw What You Started'.
