A brilliant contemporary YA coming-of-age novel about three small-town Aboriginal friends finding their way towards adulthood, from the multi-award-winning author of The Boy from the Mish, We Didn't Think It Through and I'm Not Really Here.
''An addictive read - compelling and completely enthralling - Gary Lonesborough has created another powerful story.'' - Magpies
As we step into the shopping centre car park, white spray-paint on the orange brick wall catches my eye. Two council workers in high-vis shirts are on ladders, scrubbing away the faded words: WHITE POWER.
In the idyllic coastal town of Carraway''s Point, four Aboriginal boys grew up together on Chopin Drive, carefree and close. But they drifted apart in high school, and everything changed forever the night Brandon was killed by a white cop.
Now racial tension is brewing, and each boy must wrestle with grief and their own complicated lives.
Kallum has lost his sport scholarship and must return from Sydney.
Jordy contends with family responsibilities and a closeted boyfriend.
Dylan was the only witness to Brandon''s death, and he must testify in court.
Struggling to contain their emotions and process the murder of their friend, Kallum, Jordy and Dylan must navigate explosive events in a way that opens up a future they can''t yet see.
A searing and unputdownable YA novel from acclaimed award-winning author Gary Lonesborough.
