What made March really significant, what seared it on both our brains, was that Westie met his birth mother, Vicky, for the first time, a secret assignation . . . and I met Meredith Robinson . . .
A prize-winning novel about friendship, family and an impossible love. Max Jackson tells the story of his friendship with Westie, from its wild, head-smacking glory to its bitter misunderstandings. In just one tumultuous year, a volatile cocktail -- two young men, two women, love and hate and the weight of the past -- changes that friendship for ever.
Winner of the Young Adult Fiction Honour Book Prize at the New Zealand Post Childrens Book Awards.
He looks at me now, full face, and I can see how drawn, how much older that face is -- dark pits under his eyes, lines of tiredness. He's not the warrior king I fell for eight months ago.
