The Memory Room by Christopher Koch

In Hobart in the late 1960s, Derek Bradley meets fellow university student Vincent Austin. Austin is slightly older, charismatic and unusually conservative in those radical times. The pair become firm friends. Then one wet winter night, Derek sees Vincent talking to a young woman, and is introduced to Erika Lange.
