A clash of cultures simmers beneath the surface of a tropical paradise.

Indonesia, 2004. Penny, seeking escape and purpose, arrives in Batu Batur and takes a job at Shane's Sumatran Oasis, a surf resort run by an Aussie expat with a troubling reputation. As Penny navigates the complexities of Indonesian culture, she finds herself drawn into a sinister world of xenophobia and clashing values.

Shane's influence casts a long shadow, pulling Penny into a moral quagmire where the line between right and wrong blurs. Can she find her own path amidst the rising tensions, or will she become another casualty of a culture war she barely understands?

Troppo is a gripping literary novel for readers interested in contemporary fiction, cultural exploration, and the dark side of paradise. Explore themes of identity, exploitation, and the collision of cultures in this award-winning debut from Madelaine Dickie.
