The author of THE LIGHTNING CATCHER is back with an imaginative and heartfelt middle grade novel perfect for fans of Boy Everywhere and The Crossing.

From the authorThis story is about displacement, and the uncertainty following family separation. It spotlights the protagonist’s fascination with the adult world via an owl’s eye view. It deals with learning to be responsible, juggling other people’s secrets and safety, trust, and above all, friendship. Together, these experiences reduce the impact of problems you can’t alter. They change your perspective and can work like a miracle. Jake discovers a secret about London and witnesses an astounding scientific breakthrough. The strength of this feeds into the way he feels about his own future.
