The End of Madness

Description

In the not-too-distant future, Lark's End is a ravaged wartime town on Australia's east coast, where a troubled Saul Manning finds himself institutionalised following traumatic experience. As he is introduced to the ways of the Rainbow Lighthouse, a refuge for both autistic and mentally ill patients, he gradually learns of its haunting past, as well as its ominous present. While the mysteries unravel, the young man begins to settle into his new home - but larger obstacles loom, threatening the very existence of the Lighthouse and its occupants. Put to the ultimate test, will Saul's new-found resolve prove enough to keep him going?

The End of Madness is an unflinching and frank assessment of the underpinnings of modern societal decay, and a critical evaluation of the prospect of change.
