Angela and Gracey. Friends forever.

An easy promise to make but a harder one to keep, especially when your best friend feels torn between you and her Aboriginal world. Angela and Gracey are best friends, and planned to 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. Gracey doesn't seem to know what that world means to her. Angela would help her if she could, but there are places she can't go, feelings she can't share. Their friendship drifts apart.

Then Angela discovers that she too has a heritage - one her family would sooner deny, and Angela's comfortable certainties are challenged in a way she can scarcely believe.

Did her own grandfather betray Gracey's people?

Will the answer kill their struggling friendship?

The conflict of the past possesses the power to draw the friends together but it could as easily blow them apart forever.

The third of the award-winning Gracey stories.
