A modern Picnic at Hanging Rock…? It seems unfair to compare this tale as it stands on it’s own; drawing the reader in to the twisted secrets of a small town and the selfish machinations of social media obsessed girls. Perfect for the wet and wild windy weather, delightfully creepy, especially when you think you’ve got it all sorted out!

It’s as though Eddie has sat next to you on a bench seat at the park and is telling you a story. Heartfelt and beautiful, it’s simplicity will wake the wonder.

Easy to put down and pick up, but almost bewildering in the complexities of walking a neutral line when reporting in a small town!
How do I explain this? It’s hedonisticly different. Brilliant writing, challenging perceptions… Modern love? I’m not sure… But it will stay with me for quite some time!
Read in a single sitting – compelling, and creepy and a little edge of seat!
Unapologetic and gritty, the conflicts of small town and family come hurtling into life. It’ll bring a smile to your face, and a tear to your eye, running the whole gamut of emotions in the hope of redemption!
Beautifully written for both adults and children, this is a remarkable tale of adversity and hope. Imagination, ingenuity, and life.
I really enjoy this serious. For the writing, the mystery, the food, the elephant 😉 , and also for the intriguing history that Vaseem offers as a complement to the book. Brilliant and fascinating!
Within the first few chapters you’ve forgotten the outside world. your in a small town and feeling the frustration of a family that won’t help itself. Characters that will stay with you past the last chapter – and written with a wry sense of humour, readable in a single sitting!
