Edward Piper was an accountant in Sydney who wanted to write film scripts. Simple, his loving wife, was a sloppy housewife and enthusiastic do-gooder, whose pet cause was at college. One of Edward's clients, Lindsay Reid, was a scriptwriter working on a film about ecology. When Lindsay proposed to pick Sybil's brains via Edward's artistic aspirations, conflicting aims inevitably crossed. Pat flower's story of madness and murder are and fold through Edward's eyes. She creates characters who are one step away from reality, then lets the reader share their vision of a world which, below the surface, is infinitely madder than they are.
