Hebrews 13:8

In this event memoir, Hebrews 13:8, a clique of teenage girlfriends, attends a Winter sleepout fundraising event in the city of Sydney, to increase awareness about the plight of the homeless. Their evening, which begins as a fun and jocular camp, is challenged by theft, perpetrated by a couple of disadvantaged and destitute teenage girls. The police become involved, and in the process of regaining personal possessions, moral questions are debated around poverty versus privilege and help versus hindrance. This is a modern-day story about convicts in The Rocks, a historic suburb of Sydney, being punished for stealing bread to survive. Spirit triumphs after forty years of life experience and from a present divergent perspective, provision is now granted for a second attempt to make good and an even greater opportunity to be successful in the purpose of bringing about the awareness and fundraising for present day homelessness. All proceeds from this book to the author are donated to charities supporting homelessness.
