The family of three journeys across the country, squabbling, bonding, searching and reconnecting.But Loretta isn’t mother material. She’s broke, unreliable, lost. And there’s something else that’s not quite right with this reunion.They reach the west coast and take refuge in a beachside caravan park. Their neighbour, a surly old man, warns the kids to stay away. But when Loretta disappears again the boys have no choice but to ask the old man for help, and now they face new threats and new fears.A heart wrenching book by a first time author that is beautifully written, we can't recommend it enough!
