Sinossi
In the nation’s capital, the Minister for Border Integrity is set to announce a hardline policy about offering assistance to asylum-seekers in boats. A group of Australian surf tourists have anchored their vessel, Java Ridge, beside an idyllic reef off the Indonesian coast. A few kilometers away, the Takalar is having engine trouble. Among the passengers fleeing from persecution are Roya and her pregnant mother. The storm now closing in on the two vessels will mean catastrophe for them all.

Recensione
'The author's knowledge of the sea, weather, boats and Australia's political disdain for modern day immigrants is described with fierce anger and deep compassion.' -- The Staunch Prize
"Serong exhibits impressive control, leaping between three vastly different viewpoints and delivering a fevered crescendo as compassion competes with political survival... On the Java Ridge cements Serong's place as one of Australia's most innovative and ambitious crime writers." --NZ Listener
"Devastatingly brilliant... an emotionally grueling mix of high-octane action, life-and-death political maneuvering and, at its heart, an anguishing portrayal of worldwide refugee crises... Beautiful, mournful, infuriating and brimming with tension, On the Java Ridge is utterly incomparable." --Shelf Awareness
