From the bestselling author of The Wattle Island Book Club comes a deeply moving story about the power of discovering your voice. Set between 1973 and present day, Sandie Docker expertly interweaves the stories of three women to confront the very real issues many face in modern-Australia every day from homelessness to the unhealed scars of historic forced adoption. Sandie’s sixth book is an empowering and hopeful look at how sometimes owning up to the secrets we tell ourselves can help us to find our way back home

Come along to this free event and hear Sandie speak about her writing and latest novel. Buy copies from the Devonport Bookshop on the night and chat to Sandie as she signs them for you.
