Angela and Gracey were going to be “best friends forever” and make it into the same university as care-free 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.
