Caitlin’s life changes from the moment she sees Lucas walking

across the causeway one hot summer’s day. He is the strangest, most

beautiful boy she has ever seen - and when she meets him, her

world comes alive.

But to others, he quickly becomes an object of jealousy, prejudice

and hatred. Caitlin tries to make sense of the injustice that

lurks at every unexpected twist and turn, until she realises that

she must do what she knows in her heart is right.

A striking reissue of the powerful, emotive novel from

Carnegie Medal-winning author Kevin Brooks, author of The

Bunker Diary.

One of a number of iconic Chicken House bestsellers to

be reissued for Chicken House’s 20th anniversary celebrations.
