This is a novel about second chances, though it does not announce itself as such. It arrives quietly, the way Bill Knight arrives in Collarenebri - by a long road, without fanfare, with everything he owns in four mismatched suitcases. A Knight Without Armour is set in the Australia of 1976 and 1977, a country that still moved at the pace of its distances. In the far north-west of New South Wales, where the bitumen gives way to red gravel and the sky opens up without apology, small communities looked after their own in ways that the cities had largely forgotten.
