Adam enters the boxing ring at the start of this novel and becomes friends with Jimmy, a Australian Aborigine.Jimmy and Adam are then on the run from a corrupt Policeman and eventually arrive in the Outback Opal Mining Town of Coober Pedy.Adam then finds an opal the size of a loaf of bread and his Destiny is forever changed. This book is a wonderful epic from a very talented writer who sadly passed away a few years ago. I have actually visited Coober Pedy and Mr. Green's vivid description of the town brought back some treasured memories.
