Greg and Lucy, at fourteen and twelve, act cool and responsible when their Mum
leaves home. Six year-old Grace is just bewildered. Patrick, a troubled
ten-year-old, takes drastic action to show how he feels. Ad behind it all there
is hope, and the beginnings of a plan to bring their mother back. Told from the
point of view of each of the four children, this book explores the heart-break,
hope and determination of a family in crisis.
