The third book in the Tomorrow When the War Began series. Young adult and I'm embarrassed to say I'm a little hooked at the moment. At least they are quick reads and I have had them for a while so they can be included in my 50 book count.

The TV series was shown here in Australia some years ago - very enjoyable I thought, and I agree that the mood and character were well captured. May 13, 2008
#31 A Killing Frost, by John Marsden
