North Wind
When the wind blows from the north in South Australia during the summer - it's hot! Australian summers are times of high temperatures and low humidity. In these two paragraphs, I've painted a picture to give you some idea of what it's like to step out of an air-conditioned car into a hot summer's day. South Australia is one of those places where heat waves (days of 40C ) are a regular feature of summer.
Book Excerpt
The Identity Thief: Stella Bruno Investigates
Brian killed the engine. Stella stepped out of their air-conditioned cocoon into a north wind pushing dry air from the overheated interior of the continent towards the coast. It ruffled her short dark hair and stung her face. She walked around to Brian’s side of the car, out of the wind, to slip into her scene-of-crime suit.
Stella thought it was hot enough for her to melt in her skirt and blouse without the extra layer of required protective clothing. She’d only been out of the car for a couple of minutes but it felt like she’d been standing in a sauna for hours by the time she’d donned the suit.
