Description The third part of a trilogy, begun with Waiora and Home Fires. Five teenage cousins have returned to their 'home' on the East Coast for another cousin's unveiling (headstone ceremony). This cousin, Joshua, was the chosen one, the Prophet, who took his own life, leaving his family bereft and confused. Over the three days there, they deal with the new roles they must accept as adults. Set against the backdrop of basketball, cool urban sounds and the East Coast of the North Island.
