Produktbeschreibung

Why is Mum crying? Why is she up so early? Why isn't Dad looking after her?

Something unusual is happening in an Edinburgh bungalow, and at the heart of it are Jude and Sam Redpath, a mother and son forced to confront both their grief and their darkest secrets.

Still reeling from a doping scandal that shocked the athletic world and with a baby on the way, Jude knows she must keep her family safe, no matter the sacrifice. But what does that mean she should do?

Child's third novel is a truly unique tale of grief and desperation. Us vs the World questions not only the nature of the digital world and the strength of family bonds but how far you would really go for what - and who - you love?
