Mindblowing novel from multi-awardwinning author, Margaret Mahy.
Roland has everything a young man could wish for – good looks, enough money, a cool relationship with his mother, ready wit, intelligence, a sexy girlfriend, a perfect school record. So the fact that he committed a petty crime and that, somehow, one of his teachers knows about it is something he can hardly explain to himself, let alone anyone else.The teacher, Mr Hudson, uses this knowledge to blackmail Roland into befriending the school misfit – Jess Ferret. The reason he gives is concern for her wellbeing, but even Roland finds this rather far-fetched. And when Jess doesn't respond to his confident advances, he becomes intrigued with the girl for his own reasons.Roland discovers Jess's dark secret and also finds that he has one of his own…

    So why, when he was both frightened by it and impatient with the nonsense of it, did the dream also seem more important than anything going on in his outside life? And why, in spite of his fear, did he sometimes long to hang like a sun among other suns, set in a place into which he fitted perfectly? Maybe it was because he did not quite fit into any other place.

    “Fabuloso!” Roland exclaimed softly in the darkness, copying his father’s voice. “Trickery,” he added, uncertain if he were the trickster or the man who was being tricked. This trickery (if it was trickery) not only worked inside Roland’s overcrowded, argumentative head – it seemed to work remarkably well for him in the outside world as well.
