Jamie doesn't remember Rose, his sister, killed by a terrorist bomb, but the rest of his family are consumed by her life and death. His mother has left them, his sister Jasmine has stopped eating, and his father barely notices him. However, to Jamie, Rose is just a memory. He is far more interested in his cat, his birthday Spiderman t-shirt, and in keeping his new friend Sunya a secret. Annabel Pitcher's debut novel explores themes of grief and tolerance with the lightest of touches.
