A Noise On An Island

by Zena Shapter, Northern Beaches Writers' Group (Creator)

What would you do if a long-abandoned quarry near you started emitting a strange noise?

When things go wrong, we all react differently. Some things and people we will always care about.

Others, not so much.

One island, one noise, twelve authors – what could possibly go wrong?  
“A ‘scream’ is always just that – a noise and not music.” CARL JUNG

“I frequently hear music in the very heart of noise.” GEORGE GERSHWIN
