A robust debut, harmonising Australian-born and immigrant voices, contrasting and linking their thoughts and challenges. What if moving to a crumbling Australian seaside town meant giving up your only aspiration? In 1974, Nayeema reluctantly leaves Sydney's interior city to move to Burraboo, a worn out seaside town, with her man, Fawzy. In doing this, Nayeema surrenders her only aspiration, but once there she comes under the sway of new infatuations. On the houseboat in the pristine bay nearby, she offers the comforting food of her Egyptian child years but continues her income a secret from her man. Through this action of defiance and self-reliance, Nayeema unwittingly unlocks a mysterious connection with her new land. Then everything changes whenever a local teenage young lady goes lacking and racial tensions ignite in the city. As Nayeema's houseboat preparations become more entangled, her yearnings must struggle her own record, the impetuous jinn and one another to finally show the puzzle of the strange birthmark that prickles on her chest.
