Publisher's Synopsis
In New Zealand in the 1950's and 60's Jaimie Ashcott is one of those descendants of early British settlers who have little interest in their origins. He knows who he is and where he belongs. Or does he? In Fiji in the same decades, Tela Gilbard feels little attachment to the country of her birth. Two children of the Pacific whose lives become entwined in unpredictable ways. Complete in itself, A Distant Belonging is also a sequel to Merely a Girl and The Youngest Son.
