A fictional story where the ‘ratted’ become the ‘ratters’ in their search for an unknown source of diamonds located by an opal miner now dead, who told no one of his great find.
Richard Holmes spent over 35 years in corporate America holding various financial management positions. He was a licensed certified public accountant during his corporate career and was instrumental in setting up startup companies in both the mining and manufacturing industries. In retirement, his travels have included many trips to Australia where he developed a great interest in the Australian outback. His many hobby interests include 25 years of lapidary on opal from Australia. His search for higher quality opal led him to Lightning Ridge Australia and ultimately writing the novelette, “The Ratters of Lightning Ridge.”
