Blow Fly Creek Jonathan Gair

In spite of what he might have guessed would be his Melbourne business family's objections, the estranged grandfather of that same Amberbottom clan had willed to be laid to rest exactly beside another man who was as unknown to them as the western Queensland town of Blow Fly Creek. This account, written down by the county Sheriff, reveals what happened on that day and at the wake where the local population could not help but applaud overall that burial decision for some quite terrible reasons that took their sweet time to be explained. Especially because they required precisely the right man for the job of liberating them from the horror of their pitiful existence which is why it is into the grandmother's steady, clever and high society hands that they understandably place their faith.
