Distorted Perceptions
Seventeen-year-old Lucy Ryman's world seems to be crashing in around her. Childhood sweetheart, James McIntyre, decides to trade her in - for an older model. She discovers a secret that could tear her eldest brother, Matt's, family apart. Her younger sister, Sarah, is out of control. And Lucy herself is drawn to Kev Tanner. In the words of Lucy's brother, Danny: "Apart from the minor detail of being married with two kids, the guy is also a drunk, a junkie, and a pusher, not to mention a complete psycho." And then there is Lucy's elder sister, Catherine, whose betrayal breaks Lucy's heart, and makes life even more complicated. Set in the UK, primarily in the 1980s, the novel addresses important issues, including: mental health and addiction; grief and loss; rape and sexual abuse.

On a brief trip back to New Zealand for her sister's wedding, Virginia is drawn into the family secrets, lies and tensions of both the past and the present.

Message from Nam
As a journalist, Paxton Andrews would experience Vietnam firsthand. We follow her from high school in Savannah to college in Berkeley and then to work in Saigon. For the soldiers she knew and met there, Viet Nam would change their lives in ways they could never have imagined. For the men in her life, Viet Nam would change their lives in ways hey could not escape or deny. Peter Wilson, fresh from law school, was a new recruit who would confont his fate in Da Nang. Ralph Johnson, a seasoned AP correspondent, had been in Saigon since the beginning. He knew Vietnam and the war inside out. Bill Quinn, captain of the Cu Chi tunnel rats, was on his fourth tour of duty and it seemed nothing could touch him. Sergeant Tony Campobello had come to Vietnam from the streets of New York to vent a rage that had followed him all the way to Saigon.

But for her and the men who fought in Viet Nam, life would never be the same again.
