‘He had something to show her, he said. he sat on his narrow, lumpy bed and patted the cover beside him. He unfolded a long concertina of pictures – like The Silhouette Theatre, Steph explained – of men and women doing things to each other. It was old, this pamphlet, with the ink gone in its creases; it was silent, and insinuating.’
Steph is ten and in trouble. Lex is thirteen and wants to save her sister. But being a saviour is harder than it seems.
‘Elizabeth Knox has an ardent precision, both of writing and memory.’ Margaret Mahy
