Fifteen years after he walked out on his wife and child, Richard takes his teenage daughter on a mountain hike. Against the jaw-dropping beauty of the Tasmanian mountain forests and lakes, he hopes he will be able to bridge the rift between them. But Sophie and her father soon find themselves out of their depth - lost in a treacherous, freezing landscape, two strangers battling against each other and the hostile elements.
Gripping to the very last page, The World Beneath is an emotionally intense and beautifully told novel of the mysterious labyrinths of the heart, and how we can sometimes, slowly, find our way back to the things we had thought lost.
