At eleven years old, Taylor Markham's mother abandoned her near a convenience store on Jellicoe Road. Taylor is now seventeen and in charge of her boarding school's dorm. As leader, she finds herself in secret negotiations with other teens from other schools in the area for bits and pieces of the Australian countryside surrounding the school, a game with a deadly serious overtone. When Hannah, the one adult she trusts, disappears from school grounds one day, Taylor's mind whirls with questions. Where did Hannah go? How did the territory wars between Jellicoe School students, Townies, and Cadets--a tradition several decades in the making--begin? What does the handsome and infuriating Jonah Griggs, leader of the Cadets, know about her past? And who were those five kids Hannah wrote about in an unfinished manuscript she left behind at Jellicoe?
Find out by reading Jellicoe Road, a mysterious and poetic tale of recurring dreams, connections between past and present, trust between friends, and family secrets.
