This bestseller from Josephine Cox tells a story of running away
from a secret but longing to go home. Home is where the heart is -
but it's also where the pain lies... Young Davie Adams is all
alone. Devastated, he flees his hometown of Blackburn to escape the
memories of the worst night of his life. With little more than the
shirt on his back he sets off on a lonely, friendless road,
determined to find his father. Two people are stricken by his
departure - Judy, his childhood friend who is desperate to reveal a
secret she has kept close to her heart for so long, and Joseph, his
grandfather, who is racked with guilt about that fateful night.
Exhausted and afraid, Davie finds friendship and a place to stay
but when fate deals him another disastrous blow, he must decide
whether to keep running or return to face his demons...
