AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Any plan for a skate park in Narragindi are dead in the water. The kids of the town are left to skate on the town hall steps and take their chances avoiding the local police. Zac, a young leader among the many youth committees set up to get a skate park wants no part in another attempt. His best mate, Corey, a guy with a troubled history, has a passion for the new campaign sparked by his interest in Lauren, a member of the new committee. When tragedy strikes, the town is galvanised into action, and what was originally a fight for a skate park grows into a struggle for acceptance and unity." - publisher's blurb in The Peach Season (2007)
