It is 1985, and Silver's mother Ishtar has fallen for Miller, so the three of them move to Hope Farm, a decaying commune in the bush, to make a fresh start. There Silver finds an unexpected friend and, for the first time, something like a home. But at thirteen she is also pulled into the tense, volatile world of the adults around her mother, and secrets kept for years begin to surface.
