A new and truly powerful novel from internationally bestselling Jenny Downham, author of Before I Die. Spanning three generations of women, Jenny sensitively addresses dementia, single motherhood and teenage angst.
Katie´s life is falling apart: her mum´s controlling, her dad´s run off, she´s in love with someone whose identity she can´t reveal and now her estranged grandmother´s turned up on the doorstep and Katie´s expected to take care of her.
Soon Katie discovers she´s not the only one in her family hiding the truth. If she´s going to get her life back together, she´s going to have to expose everyone´s deepest secrets - including her own.
Jenny Downham hat als Schauspielerin in einer freien Theatergruppe gearbeitet, bevor sie anfing zu schreiben. Sie lebt mit ihren beiden Söhnen in London.
