Reviews
A beautifully paced, closely observed and utterly compelling story about losing a dream and finding your passion… you’re not reading this book, you’re living it.
This convincing and inspiring adventure smells of freedom… it’s Wilkinson’s excellent characterisation – peppered with a touch of romance and big dreams – that mostly underpins the narrative drive, making for an engrossing page-turner.
