Summary: It is a town of dwindling fortunes: of petrol stations and fast-food outlets, shopping centres and cul-de-sacs, radio stations without listeners, buses devoid of passengers: a locale believed by its inhabitants to have no history of its own. When a young writer arrives to research a book about disappearing towns in regional New South Wales, he falls into the futile rhythms of the place, until an outbreak of mysterious holes start to appear - a growing oblivion that threatens to erase the town's already marginal existence.
