Synopsis

A heartbreaking but hope-filled tale about the stories we tell ourselves to survive from the author of The Sky is Mine

You are strong. You are brave. You are not alone.

Seventeen-year-old Iris is happy. She's fearless, she's strong. She is everything but a girl who lost her mum.

But Iris's dad and step-mum have been keeping a secret. One big enough to unravel her. Only the magnetic Órla can provide an escape, until things get . . . complicated. As Iris questions who she is, it becomes clear she can't run away from grief.

What happens when someone who has never faced up to the darkness lets it in?
