Growing up and growing wiser in Australia’s turbulent Vietnam era.
For Jenny it’s all about the shoes (Mary Quant), the dresses (mini) and the music (Beatles) — until elusive Asher takes her to a demo.
Even from distant France, singer Vivy dislikes everything about Vietnam: but there's no denying her bond when she's given a tiny golden fossil.
Reporter Claire’s one-way ticket to Saigon leads to André, her guide to the surreal propaganda war. But it’s safer not to ask where André’s loyalties lie.
Winning Vietnamese hearts and minds is conscript Leo's job, but where Claire is concerned his heart and mind still have a lot of catching up to do.
And afterwards: when the shadows of loss and despair and violence begin to overwhelm, how does anyone recover?
Shadows in Jade is the fourth book in the Tempo series, by the winner of the Mountbatten Maritime Award and the Western Australian Premier’s Book Award for Non-Fiction.
