"We are the storm and the stillness."


Indigo Michael isn't like other kids. And her mum isn't like other mums. Life for people like them isn't meant to have meaning—it's just something to survive in whatever way you can.


When her mum abandons her, Aster's Aunt Noni becomes her foster parent. Suddenly Indigo has a new 'family'—one she didn't ask for and isn't even sure she wants.


Then she meets Liam. He graffiti's revolutionary words across the world, words that make Indigo want to run towards something, build something, be something.


For the first time in a long time, Indigo feels she has made a genuine friend, which makes it even harder when that friendship is betrayed ...


This poignant companion novel to the CBCA Award winning Aster's Good, Right Things explores the different shapes of friendship and family, and how a girl who longs for all she's never had, learns what it means to truly belong.

Kate Gordon

Kate Gordon grew up in a very booky house, with two librarian parents, in a small town by the sea in Tasmania. After studying performing arts and realising she was a terrible actor, Kate decided to give in to genetics and study to be a librarian herself.

She never stopped writing and, in 2009, with the encouragement of a very nice man called Leigh (who is also her husband), she applied for and won a Varuna fellowship, which led to all sorts of lovely writer things happening. Kate's first book, Three Things About Daisy Blue-a young Adult novel about travel, love, self-acceptance and letting go-was published in the Girlfriend series by Allen and Unwin in 2010.

She's also written Thyla (Random House Australia), Vulpi, the sequel to Thyla (Random House Australia), Writing Clementine (Allen and Unwin) and Twenty- five Memories of Viggo MacDuff (Odyssey Books). In 2018, Kate was shortlisted in the Dorothy Hewett Awards for an Unpublished Manuscript.
