John Danalis grew up with an Aboriginal skull sitting on the mantelpiece of his familys home. This is the story of the journey he undertakes when he decides to return the skull to its traditional owners. This mission has a profound effect on his life, as he begins to question why the skull, ‘Mary’, was in their home, where it came from, and who it should belong to. He quickly learns that returning the skull is not going to be a straightforward task.

Anyone interested in modern Aboriginal society will find this moving and intensely personal story of reconciliation fascinating.
