Out of the Shadows

By Sue Hines

Australia. High School. Rowanna (Ro) is 16, and her Mom was a lesbian. After her Mom got killed by a drunk driver, Ro has had to live with her Mom's partner - who she's spent years hating.

Ro's best friend at school is Mark, and when the new girl, Jodie, comes into their lives, Mark completely falls for her.

Only... Jodie falls in love with Ro!


"Out of the Shadows" won the 1998 Australian Family Therapists' Award for Children's Literature.
