Miracle

Boorunga's spate of sudden deaths has everyone twitching. It was her dad's new job at Compassionate Cremations which started the suspicions. Miracle takes the full weight on her shoulders. Named because she was born in Australia's biggest-ever earthquake, Miracle, at 14, is tormented by her classmates, even by Oli, the boy she can't get out of her head. She fears for her agoraphobic mother, and for her angelic, quake-damaged brother, Julian. When Oli plays a cruel trick on Miracle, a chain of devastating events is set off. How can she convince the town of her dad's innocence? 'Ingeniously plotted, with the best combination of grit and quirkiness, Miracle is sure to become a fast favourite with a wide range of readers.'
