Book Launch: Fight by Keryn Powell at Wardini Napier

Join us for the launch of Fight by Keryn Powell. Our Adele has already read it and is a fan: 'Powerful and authentic,' she says.
This is a free event, and all are welcome to celebrate this fabulous achievement, Fight having been longlisted for the Laura Solomon Cuba Press Prize!
Here's what it's about:
When an unexpected Family Court decision sends Max to live with his estranged father in Australia, he’s determined to do whatever it takes to get home to his mum, sister and friends.
But ‘whatever it takes’ is not going to be straightforward.
His father has him under virtual house arrest.
He knows no one in Australia apart from his oldest sister who left them to live with his father four years ago.
He has no lawyer.
What he does have is determination.
And when the opportunity presents itself, Max escapes.
But now what?
Keryn Powell lives in Hawkes Bay, New Zealand, with her husband and the youngest of their four children, a dog, and a few hens. She loves frogs, anti-frizz shampoo and avoiding housework. When she’s not writing, she works as a GP. Fight is her second published book.
