The powerful new bestseller from Josephine Cox – the country’s favourite storyteller. After a tragic accident resulting in the death of his mother, and the disappearance of his father, young Davie flees his hometown of Blackburn, unsure of what the future holds for him. Devastated, he must escape the vicious rumours about his mother as well as his memories of her. With nothing more than the shirt on his back, he sets off – to find his father, a livelihood and maybe a glimpse of happiness. Meanwhile, back home, those Davie has left behind wait anxiously. There's Kathleen, his childhood friend who has held a secret close to her heart these past few years, and Joseph, his grandfather whose guilt at the events which unfolded that dreadful night burns right to his soul. Will they ever see their beloved Davie again? Eventually, after months of wandering, Davie finds somewhere he can call home. But tragedy stalks him once more and it's not long before everything comes to a dreadful impasse. It's time for him to make a decision – to keep running or go back home and face the past once and for all… In this riveting work of fiction, Josephine Cox, the Sunday Times bestselling author, weaves a tale of loss, longing, and the relentless pursuit of redemption. Davie's journey, fraught with tragedy and turmoil, is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, a theme that resonates throughout the narrative. For fans of Rosie Goodwin (A Mother's Grace), Anna Jacobs (Lavender Lane), Katie Flynn (The Winter Runaway), Rita Bradshaw (A Woman of Courage), and Margaret Dickinson (A Mother’s Sorrow).
