Book description
The gripping sequel to hugely successful THE DIARY OF PELLY D. It's ten
years since the terrible war in the cities that took Kat and Tanka's
parents. A new life in the New Frontier beckons them, far from bullet
holes and bomb craters. New Frontier people are building a fresh,
liberal society, without the genetic classification and discrimination
that led to the war. Kat and Tanka have a beautiful new home, Cherry
Heaven, and everything promises them peace and happiness. But Cherry
Heaven carries haunting marks of the past, bubbling to the surface in
mysterious and frightening ways. Woven from two voices: Kat, teenage,
light, modern and knowing, the other a disturbed, fragmented story from
another, peeling away the surface of the New Frontier to expose a
different truth. A tense, engrossing mystery, exploring post-war guilt
and punishment, redemption and reconciliation.
