AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'A moment. That's all it takes. A bewildering moment when the world spins upside-down, and then life can never be the same again.

'Arrow was just a girl when she saw something no child should have to see. And Marika is living a sister's worst nightmare...

'When Arrow and Marika come together in a small seaside town, they meet a mysterious 'magician' who says he knows how to escape the now and step into a new future.

'A brilliant and bittersweet story of loss and courage, with a surprising twist.' (Publisher's blurb)
