Es ist 1978: Die Abtreibungsklinik Auckland wurde gezwungen, zu schließen und der sechzehnjährige Charlie muss nach Sydney fliegen, aber das Flugzeug ist auf dem Asphalt verspätet. Es ist 2019 – Charlies eng geschlossenes Wellington-Leben mit ihrem Enkel Tommy wird durch die unerwarteten Eingriffe von Tommys erster Freundin Jenna, und dem Vater, den er noch nie gekannt hat, Jim unterbrochen. Das Jahr dreht sich, und alles ändert sich wieder.

Elizabeth Knox
Diese fiktive Geschichte zwischen den Generationen wird mit einer breiten Leserschaft über die Entscheidungen sprechen, die für unsere Zukunft wichtig sind. Dame Margaret Sparrow
