"In 1960s provincial New Zealand, conventional middle-class lives are not always as respectable as they appear. Callum Gow's family and their social circle are influential and prosperous, but below the surface intrigue thrives. In this atmosphere, Callum is coming to understand his own identity and where he belongs. When his grandfather’s life is threatened, Callum confronts authority and power. In doing so, he uncovers forces hell-bent on destruction, but he also attracts kindred souls determined to find resolution and harmony. All the while Callum is composing his history speech"--Back cover.
