Notes

177 p. : ill. Growing up in 1970s Hamilton, Jackie Simms is sustained by two great loves: the Swedish supergroup Abba, and her older brother's best friend, Davey. Unfortunately, it seems that Abba will never visit New Zealand, Davey hardly knows she exists, and her brother keeps going on about his upcoming scenic flight over Antarctica. As Jackie grapples with life on the brink of adolescence she is unaware of the fate that looms, silent white and deadly, for someone close to her. New Zealand author
