Everybody Jam | Ali Lewis

Danny Dawson lives in the middle of the Australian outback.
His older brother Jonny was killed in an accident last year but no-one ever talks about it.
And now it's time for the annual muster.
The biggest event of the year on the cattle station, and a time to sort the men from the boys.
But this year things will be different: because Jonny's gone and Danny's determined to prove he can fill his brother's shoes;
because their fourteen-year-old sister is pregnant;
because it's getting hotter and hotter and the rains won't come;
because cracks are beginning to show .
.
.
When Danny's mum admits she can't cope, the family hires a housegirl to help out - a wide-eyed English backpacker.
She doesn't have a clue what she's let herself in for.
And neither do they.
