The Whip Hand

Stories of control, betrayal, and resilience in everyday lives. From a young mother stealing back her child to a disillusioned lover seeking revenge, from house cleaners contemplating crime to a woman parting ways with Jesus, The Whip Hand illuminates the complexity of the everyday. These stories explore how people gain, lose, or reclaim control of their lives. Mihaela Nicolescu and Nadine Browne offer compassionate but unflinching accounts of flawed characters navigating family dynamics, addiction, and the search for meaning in the Australian landscape.
