Angela and Gracey were going to be "best friends forever" and make it into the same university as carefree first year students. But for Gracey, her Aboriginal heritage takes on a new significance.
While Angela falls in love for the first time, Gracey is drawn into black politics and their friendship drifts apart. Then Angela discovers that she too has a heritage - one her family would sooner deny. The conflict of the past possesses the power to draw the friends together but it could as easily blow them apart forever.
This novel concludes the trilogy, which began with award-winning 'Dougy And Gracey'. James Moloney yet again shows why his novels are so much in demand as powerful narratives of contemporary Australian society.
