Damengin is a country town in Queensland weighed down by the worst drought in living memory and its inhabitants are all desperately waiting for government drought relief.

The bad news is that the funds have been sent and spent by Council's Shire Clerk Shifty Grey and his corrupt cohorts.

This is a rollicking fast-moving story about political skulduggery, greed, love and lust. It features outrageous characters, blossoming romances, pathos and importantly, has an incredibly happy ending.

Industry Reviews

"A quintessential, fun-filled, lively Aussie yarn set against the backdrop of a crippling Queensland drought. A mixture of frolicsome, cheeky characters, hilarious asides and snappy quips. Highly entertaining."

- Marion Hughes, author of Watch Your Back


"If you have ever lived in a country town, you will recognize the wonderful characters painted in this new book, Damengin by Jenny Wellington. Their stories follow the heart break of drought, and the difficulty of their everyday lives in love and loss, and lots of delicious secrets. This is a book for all ages. "Damengin", will live in your heart long after you have put this book down.

- Judith Flitcroft, author of Walk Back in Time


"Jenny Wellington has given her characters strong, authentic dialogue, coupled with a stoic approach to life which enables them to survive the hardship of an environment indifferent to their suffering during hard times and elation during good times. This story reveals a truth about human endurance that lingers long after its return to the bookcase."

- Kenneth N. Price, author of Broken Lives


"A delightful depiction of rural life. Illicit romances, rebellious off-spring, shady deals in a resilient, compassionate community facing hardships."

- Vivian Waring, author of When Tears Ran Dry
