A haunting, compelling first novel by the author of the award-winning Madness: A Memoir.

Forever entwined, Sea and Serene live isolated in the Australian alpine wilderness, together with Wren - the young man who helps care for them. Each have found peace in this wild, fierce landscape, and they live in harmony, largely self-sufficient.

One day Wren discovers a woman on the road nearby, badly injured and unconscious. He brings her back to the cottage, and he and the twins nurse her back to health. But the arrival of this outsider shatters the dynamic within, with unforeseen consequences.

Lyrical and poetic, Fusion is a unique and haunting modern-gothic tale that has at its heart questions of selfhood, dependency, difference and love. It is the compelling first novel by the award-winning author of Madness: A Memoir.

"While at times heart-wrenchingly sad, the novel is never without hope; Richards highlights her characters’ ultimate desires for love and acceptance through gentle moments of compassion and exquisite descriptions of the natural world. Her highly stylised prose delivers a story that is as multi-layered as its characters. Part fairytale, part Australian Gothic thriller, Fusion is contemporary Australian literature at its finest and deserves multiple readings-an ideal selection for book clubs."
Jacqui Davies, Australian Bookseller + Publisher

An intriguing story that draws you in from the very beginning, I struggled to put this book down once I started reading. The writer deftly conjures up powerful images of the apline landscape that the characters rely on for their survival, and the changing seasons they endure as the story unfolds. The characters are damaged and their stories are at times gruesome, but there is also a sense of beauty in them, so original and beautifully written.
