Quite unlike her fair stepsisters, Lizzie is dark and secretive:
'Just like your father' says her mother. But what was her father
like? Photos of him are hidden away; snatches of overheard
conversation between her mother and her stepfather deepen the
mystery. Only her best friend Savannah - also abandoned by her
father when she was a baby - knows what it feels like to wonder, to
try and piece together an earlier story. But when events propel
Lizzie alone to London she stops wondering and starts searching...
Beautifully evoking the ache of childhood loss, the scrappy joys of
chaotic families, and the hurt and relief of understanding, OUT OF
THE PICTURE reveals Polly Samson's talent for laying bare the
uncomfortable truths that lie just under the skin - in every
family, in every secret.
