'Devastating … Any reader with a heart will weep buckets' Sunday Times Book of the Week
They think I hurt someone.
But I didn't. You hear?
Cos people are gonna be telling you
all kinds of lies.
I need you to know the truth.

Joe hasn't seen his brother for ten years, and it's for the most brutal of reasons. Ed is on death row.
But now Ed's execution date has been set, and Joe is determined to spend those last weeks with him, no matter what other people think …
From one-time winner and two-time Carnegie Medal shortlisted author Sarah Crossan, this poignant, stirring, huge-hearted novel asks big questions. What value do you place on life? What can you forgive? And just how do you say goodbye?

Quotes

  • Meimei Chasmishas quoted3 years ago
    ‘The moonrise was beautiful all month,’ I tell Ed.

    ‘It’s beautiful underneath this sky.’
  • Meimei Chasmishas quoted3 years ago
    tomorrow’s a story that ain’t been written yet.

    No use in rehearsing it.

    No use at all.’
  • Meimei Chasmishas quoted3 years ago
    you can know all the facts you want about

    a person

    – height, weight, the way they like their eggs –

    but you’ll never know for sure what’s

    driving his heart.
