Description
When Ellie's brother is charged with the offence, her world begins to unravel.
When Mikey and Ellie meet, their worlds collide.
A brave and unflinching novel from the bestselling author of Before I Die, about first love, loyalty, betrayal and truth.
An intense and arresting love story
An outstanding, compelling drama from Downham
It's one of the most powerful books we've read in an age. Even after finishing, it lingered with us for days . . . Jenny Downham's novel blows other books out of the water
I loved it . . . Beautifully written with a painful but penetrating awareness
A tale of love across the social divide in coastal Norfolk, with the edge of a crime novel . . . Split loyalties and the chasm between the young couple's life experiences make their enduring relationship a triumph. Their credible and tender sexual encounter is the calm before the storm, as for Romeo and Juliet
