About the book

Synopsis

How would you cope if you committed a terrible crime as a youngster - not even a teenager - and were then released back into the community as a young adult, attempting to make a new life for yourself? Scared to ever let down your guard and let people know who you are? Scared to look back and see what 'you' did in the past? And - just a little - hopeful that the future could be so much better than your past - This is what faces Alex in this hardhitting new novel from Sandra Glover.
