DisguisesISBN: 1-921019-55-7 Cathie Lee is a Gen Y Australian girl — but as a second generation Chinese, she's forced to wear a Chinese disguise. That's cool — until Pauline Hanson strikes and Cathie experiences racism from her fellow Australians. She writes about one nasty experience that wins a competition — and that decides her career: journalism. For a final year assignment, she interviews Peter Harris, a harmless looking old guy she meets in a café. But the story he tells of a love affaire in 'sixties Hong Kong, the Cultural Revolution, police corruption and murky family secrets detonates a time bomb that blows Cathie's life apart. What disguise is Peter wearing? And why is the author disguised as Sally Leigh?
