About

Have I killed them with my thoughts? Am I evil? Was it a premonition? A wish? Can thinking something make it happen?

Fourteen-year-old Erin Vincent was living a happy, carefree life on a cul-de-sac in the southern Sydney suburb of Beverly Hills (a far cry from the 90210 version) when tragedy struck. One day her parents went on a day trip to visit Erin's grandmother's grave and never came back.

Erin, her seventeen-year-old sister, and her three-year-old brother were now on their own.

In this darkly humorous tale of woe, treachery, larceny and family relationships, Erin tells the story of her parents death and the bizarre and sometimes harrowing events that followed. But Erin knew she had to somehow emerge from under the weight of this tragic loss...

Focusing not on what happens to you, but what you do with it, Erin Vincent gives us clear insight into the fog of grief and the trials of her teenage years with humour, hope and, eventually, triumph.
Australian-born Erin Vincent has worked as a journalist with News Corp, a fashion designer, a creative consultant, a theatre actress, a photographer's assistant, a waitress on a paddle steamer and has served meat pies and mushy peas late at night from a roadside van in Sydney. She lives with her husband, Adam, and pet crab named Charlie.
