It takes Mal Peel to show you the way back out" -- Frank Cottrell Boyce Review Quote"A beautiful book … simple but profound" -- Just Imagine Review Quote"Peet pulls no punches in exploring the life and mind of a teen suffering from anxiety. The engaging, sparsely written narrative is suspensful and keeps the reader guessing all the way. Shoard's haunting, murky illustrations work perfectly. A super-readable, unnerving work that stands with the late Peet's best" -- CBI, Recommended Reads A powerful and unsettling novella from the multi-award-winning Mal Peet, with stunning full-colour illustrations from Kate Greenaway-longlisted Emma Shoard.
