Tomodachi

the long version

Janice Lewis, seventeen, and beginning a university course in Sydney, finds a friend in Hisako, a Japanese fellow student. However, when Hisako meets Ben Lewis, Janice’s dad, old hatreds bubble to the surface. What is the secret Ben has carried since the end of the Second World War—a secret which has the potential to destroy more than one family relationship? Told against the historical background of the Cowra Breakout in 1944, Tomodachi is an exciting, fast-moving Australian historical novel for older teens. Note: This book is a completely revised, rewritten and corrected version of *Yesterday's Enemy: Tomadachi* first published in 1994.
