Publisher's Summary
A beautiful new novel about the innocence of childhood and the scars that stay with you for life, written and read by the award-winning author of Mr Wigg and Nest.
Kieran cleared his throat. 'We swear, on these trees, to always be friends. To protect each other - and this place.'
Finding those carved trees forged a bond between Jay and her four childhood friends and opened their eyes to a wider world. But their attempt to protect the grove ends in disaster, and that one day on the river changes their lives forever.
Seventeen years later, Jay finally has her chance to make amends. But at what cost? Not every wrong can be put right, but sometimes looking the other way is no longer an option.

Good story, mediocre performance
I did not enjoy the reading. It was too hurried. Not enough space between chapters.

Had potential but didn't get there
I found my concentration wandering with the monotone narration, so I suspect I didn't get the full benefit of the story. I liked the descriptive writing and clever imagery that made me feel like I was right there in the story, and the accurate references to life in Canberra. But that was not enough to redeem this book for me.
