In wartime Sydney, young Daniel Jordan's life is dominated by two conflicting influences: the religion he imbibes at school and the communism of his terrifying neighbour, the 'Comrade'. Through Daniel's often amusingly confused view of the adult world, Thomas Keneally deftly explores the effects of rigid adherence to dogma and the fine line between innocence and guilt.
