Double White Lines

Can we ever truly know other people?
Does love reveal or obscure us from each other?
Is love really all we need?

In Western Australia in the early 2010s, five women grapple with love - platonic, romantic, familial and fraternal - as they seek their own answers to these questions.

Gracie and her twin sister, Lou, have very different approaches to what they want from their lives and how to exist while not fitting into societal expectations about what love and life looks like;

Bianca, who enters into romantic relationships with blind faith, never thinking too far ahead, follows a pattern that she never interrogates;

Beautiful, confident and spiteful Flick, who lives fast and flirts with danger, thinks she knows exactly what to do when danger flirts back;

and Arity, whose return to her hometown after many years away forces her to face up the legacy of her family's failures, and step into a new future with a determination to do everything differently.

Note: This novel expands on selected themes and characters which were first sketched in Double White Lines: Two Novellas.
