About the Book

Sydney, 1975 and Angie Bedford at 18 is set to break free from her parents home and become part of the 'cool crowd', which she has always longed for. Renting a room in a house, in the bay side suburb of Brighton-le-Sands, she finds herself amongst the perfect group of people! Smoking marijuana is a daily ritual and partying is their recreation. Enticed by her desire to be a free spirit she falls easily into the routine. She meets and falls in love with Stuart Archer, Stu to his friends. Stu lives in Cronulla with his mate, Luke. They love the ocean and surf as much as they can. Angie and Stu move in together and the future seems set to be perfect! However, when Stu is persuaded by his friends to help move large quantities of marijuana for distribution, Angie becomes anxious. Not wanting to risk their life for a small fee she objects but to no avail. Stu is set on the seemingly easy task. So Angie waits..... By 1977, the drug trade in Sydney was being overtaken by criminals with their own agenda. The harmless 'hippy network' was being targeted and life was becoming dangerous. One last run. Stu and his friends are set. One more time and then they are out! Not all is as it seems and lives spiral out of control as the series of events take over the well laid plan. Angie is left to pick up the pieces and make her own way. From the southern Sydney beach of Cronulla to the majestic Blue Mountains, the story continues on a path to hard won happiness. How can Angie find her way back to her true love, past the obstacles set to try her? What will be the key to their futures? Spiral is a story from innocence to maturity and the lessons learned, usually the hard way. Set against a background of the drug industry in Australia in the late 70's, when the peace loving 'hippy generation' lost their innocence and criminals took their hold.
About the Author: Spiral is Donna Nicoll's second novel. It is set in and around the area she lived in as a teenager. Cronulla beach was her haunt in the late 1970's.

All characters are of course fictional. She now lives on a rural property on the Far South Coast of New South Wales, near the town of Bega. With her husband and teenage son, they raise a crazy assortment of pampered pets. From alpacas and sheep to cat and dog, all are part of the family! Donna works with Meals on Wheels in Bega and is their Kitchen Supervisor. A role which allows her to indulge her passion for cooking and creating good food. Her first novel, Crompton Hall, is also available on Amazon
