THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY DEBUT OF 2021 This is a story about taking a
leap of faith And believing the unbelievable They say those we love
never truly leave us, and I've found that to be true. But not in
the way you might expect. In fact, none of this is what you'd
expect. I've been visiting my mother who died when I was eight. And
I'm talking about flesh and blood, tea-and-biscuits-on-the-table
visiting here. Right now, you probably think I'm going mad. Let me
explain... Although Faye is happy with her life, the loss of her
mother as a child weighs on her mind even more now that she is a
mother herself. So she is amazed when, in an extraordinary turn of
events, she finds herself back in her childhood home in the 1970s.
Faced with the chance to finally seek answers to her questions -
but away from her own family - how much is she willing to give up
for another moment with her mother? Space Hopper is an original and
poignant story about mothers, memories and moments that shape life.
