Winner of the Non-Fiction Prize in the 2011 WA Premier's Book Awards Shortlisted for the Non-Fiction Prize in the 2012 Victorian Premier's Literary Awards and the 2012 Queensland Literary Awards 'Alice Pung is a gem.

But with each step she takes she feels the sharp tug of invisible threads: the love and worry of her parents, who want more than anything to keep her from harm. Her father fears for her safety to an extraordinary degree - but why? As she digs further into her father's story, Alice embarks on a journey of painful discovery: of memories lost and found, of her own fears for the future, of history and how it echoes down the years.
