Survival is only the beginning.

Two fugitives, a man and a child, drive across a stony desert. As dawn breaks, they roll into an abandoned mine site. They’re exhausted, traumatised, desperate now, and this is a forsaken place, but as a refuge it’s the most promising they’ve seen. The child peers at the field of desolation.

The man thinks to himself, this could work. Problem is, they’re not alone . . .

So begins a searing, epic journey through a life where the challenge is not only to survive; it’s keeping your humanity if you do.

Juice is a masterpiece for fans of Station Eleven and The Road from twice Booker-shortlisted author Tim Winton. Coming October 2024.
