โฆ Synopsis
Her life had only Janey, and Janey took up all the room in it and more when she was there, but she left a whole lot empty when she wasn't.
Janey's background is grim, lock-the-door-at-night type grim, but nothing weighs her down for long. She's wild, sexy, reckless, funny and original. Being friends with Janey is a roller-coaster ride - never dull, often risky. Chloe is the steady one; anchored by her family, she anchors Janey, as much as she can. But just how fr does the friendship go? That question is shockingly, brutally answered when Janey's grim world catches up with her.
Margo Lanagan is a versatile author of subtle psychological YA novels, including The Best Thing, two intriguing sci-fi adventures, WildGame, The Tankermen, and a quirky ghost story for younger readers, Walking Through Albert.
