201 May Street

How many years do you keep your unspeakable deed a secret?
Can the ultimate revenge ever be justified?
It makes no difference how many years go by, the fact remains, never underestimate a woman's scorn.
Lusciandra is thirteen when her mother dies of a drug overdose. It is soon apparent Lusciandra has no relatives living in Sydney. The police organize a temporary home in Melbourne. Confusion over the train's arrival time sees Lusciandra stranded. When Tiffany Mailton eventually meets Lusciandra, she's not interested in her missing suitcase that has the only photo of her mum. The last remaining items connecting Lusciandra with her past life is what she is wearing. Out shopping, Tiffany confesses to her friend she is only looking after the girl under sufferance. At fourteen Lusciandra is raped by a family member and tells Tiffany, who in turn calls the young teenager a liar. Full of hate, she runs away.
Befriending a prostitute, the woman tells Lusciandra the man should have paid for the privilege. When Lusciandra looks towards her future years, all she can see is loneliness. She decides to celebrate her fifteenth birthday by standing on the wrong side of a bridge wall waiting for the right moment to end her life.
Can the young man walking across the bridge convince her not to commit suicide?
How will he react to the news of her unspeakable secret? Will he be like all the other men in her life; turn his back and walk away?
