Publisher's Synopsis
In Ruby Winters' world, colour opens some doors and slams others shut. Her opulent Johannesburg neighbourhood is a far cry from the streets of Soweto where anger and hatred simmer under the surface.
Ruby can't resist the blue-eyed Afrikaans boy who brings her the exciting rush of first love, but whose presence brings hushed whispers and disapproving glances. She might not see race, colour or creed - but it seems everybody else does.
For Ruby, making some choices means letting others go, and as the darkness begins to descend, she must find a way to follow a brighter path . . .
This dazzling novel will entrance teenage and adult readers alike.
