Full Description
Sixteen-year-old Dusty is smart, talented and fiercely protective of her younger sister Poppy. They've been moved from foster carer to foster carer, until one day the unthinkable happens: Dusty and Poppy are separated.
Dusty is sent to a children's home in a different town; Poppy to a family hundreds of miles away. No one can say when they will see each other again.
Devastated but determined, Dusty has to find a way to reach Poppy. Everything seems stacked against her until she meets beautiful, fearless Cooper at the home, and together they decide to run...
What follows is a heart-breaking love story, road movie, tense police hunt, and hope-filled celebration of sibling bonds and kindness, which shines a light on a failing care sector where a quarter of children are living apart from their siblings.
'Packed with colour and burning with life's force... Lisa Heathfield's brilliant protagonist is full of urgent love, complex betrayals, and ferocious secrets' Luke Palmer
