What Change May Come Mala Naidoo

Change is inevitable... it's the acceptance that matters...



What Change May Come is a heart-stopping read on the lives of sisters Grace and Patience Sharvin who are confronted by the change they did not believe possible after all they had endured.



Is it choice or destiny that decrees the road that sisters Grace and Patience Sharvin shall now travel? The Sisters Helping Sisters Organisation (SHSO) and City Hospital ER, constant swing doors of inhumane acts, become a selfless haven for the restless souls of the Sharvin sisters, as a medical doctor and social worker. Grace's abuse as an intern at the hands of a troubled young man and Patience's abduction by the chief of her cultural clan was not the last of their life's convoluted journey.

What Change May Come tells the story of Grace and her partner, Dr Keefe Daly, challenged by his past transgressions that elicit guilt, denial and a necessary call for action. Will their relationship survive the denial and trepidation of unexpected change?

Set in Australia, the story changes locations as horrific and unexpected events and situations arise in the lives of their close friends, and associates. The arrival of newcomers, the return of others, loss and longing, brings pain, joy and sadness as each character wrestles with unpredictable change.

Will the legacy of the childhood bond their mothers established, survive, or will they crack under the strain of irrepressible change?

Only time will tell ...

For a rollercoaster of turbulent emotions, with a dash of humour, truth, lies, forgiveness and commitment are unleashed. Join Grace and Patience in a page-turner read on their rocky path in the next stage of their lives.



A novel that tests human resilience in the wake of unspeakable change.
