The Breaking of Wally (Book 2)

The Breaking of WallySet in 1910, Walmatjarri, a tribal aborigine of the Australian Central Desert Wongi tribe, has abducted a young maiden from another tribe and fled into the outback scrubland. With the prospect of being pursued by the warrior to whom the maiden had been promised in marriage; plus the white man police for an earlier incident in which he inflicted pay-back punishment on two Laverton town ruffians, the young black warrior faces danger on a daily basis. After surviving the harsh desert environment, Walmatjarri and his young companion, Jarli, are taken in by the husband and wife owners of a sheep station. What began as an idyllic interval in their short lifetime, turned into a tragedy which again saw Walmatjarri on the run from police. The traumatic events he experienced saw Walmatjarri transform from a happy-go-lucky fresh-faced warrior to a broken shell of a man. Then, with nothing but fierce vengeance on his mind, he set about extracting tribal pay-back punishment on the members of a shearing team who had caused him unimaginable grief.Two police troopers and their aboriginal black-tracker assistants were assigned to track him down and bring him to justice. Would Walmatjarri be able to utilise his bushcraft skills to elude the pursuing police team?
