'An intricately crafted novel, sharp-eared, current and full of
heart' Guardian, Books of the Year A spirited fourteen-year-old,
Fay, goes missing from a Lincoln council estate. Is she a runaway,
or a victim - another face on a poster gradually fading with time?
The story of her last few days before she vanishes is interwoven
with the varied lives of six locals - all touched in life-changing
ways. David is on a family holiday on the bleak Lincolnshire coast;
Howard, a retired steel worker with some dodgy friends; Cosmina, a
Romanian immigrant; Sheena, middle-aged and single, running a
kiddies' clothes shop; Mike, owner of a second-hand bookshop and
secretly in love with Cosmina; and Chris, a TV-producer-become-monk
struggling to leave the ordinary world behind. All are involuntary
witnesses to the lost girl; paths cross, threads touch, connections
are made or lost. Is Fay alive or dead? Or somewhere in between?
