In Zebra we travel to the Lodge where the Prime Minister is abandoning her budget papers in favour of a ramble through her expansive garden. The PM disdains the press scrum and as we move with her we see she is deeply concerned with how her stewardship of the country is going to see it develop. On the outskirts of the Lodge, she discovers her neighbour surreptitiously moving the shared fence by several inches onto her side, but is met by a volley of verbal abuse every time she approaches the boundary. Then a strange correspondence from a private zoo in America sees the arrival of the gift of a Zebra to the Lodge.

Zebra is the latest story collection from Debra Adelaide.
