A contemporary novel that shares some highly sensitive issues. This book deals with the effects of poverty on a teenager Maisy and her family. Most of Maisy's time is used up manufacturing a false identity, thinking of ways to climb out of poverty and above all pretending to be someone other than herself. After spending time with her father in his mansion in Toorak Maisy sees how the other half live and is bedazzled. But is all as it seems? Possibly for the upper end of this age group.
