By any criteria, he was a suicide risk.' This memoir tells the tragic true story leading up to the death of the author's younger brother, Matthew, at just 28 years old. Matthew's dream was not uncommon. The plan was to get out the big city - Sydney - and settle down in a small rural town - Temora, New South Wales. His dream eventually was to buy a little farm, begin a career as a schoolteacher and have a family. A simple plan you might think. Matthew lasted in Temora for just six months. Patricia's memoir reveals the untold stories from Temora. Using a collection of family and friends' recollections as well as witness statements and official reports, we learn the power of four young girls and a closed-minded community, a common attitude of guilty until proven innocent, the blinded eyes of those who are supposed to help and how a young man's life can be ruined in a split second. Features Summary A memoir of the tragic events leading up to the death by suicide in an isolated rural community of the author's younger brother.
