Description

The Tap Cats Of The Sunshine Coast, by Christine Sykes, tells the story of a Queensland-based tap dancing group that faces unexpected challenges when they enter the Seniors Superstar competition.

Through the observant eyes of Carol's journalist niece, Melissa, we meet Carol, Sofia, and Bonnie, whose lives have been intertwined since primary school. Their hopes, dreams, ageing, heartaches, and heart mends have been woven together in a close web for decades. These bonds are in danger of unravelling when long-held secrets are revealed—secrets that rock the foundations of their friendship and the destiny of the Tap Cats.

Set against the stunning landscape of the Sunshine Coast, the women tap their way through the competition, as well as personal trials and tribulations, all the way to New York and a Greek Island.
