A runaway, a baby and a whole lot of questions. . . Lissa is home on her own after school one afternoon when a stranger turns up on the doorstep carrying a baby. Reed is on the run - surely people are looking for him? He' s trying to find out who he really is and thinks Lissa' s mum might have some answers. But how could he be connected to Lissa' s family - and why has he been left in charge of a baby? A baby who is sick, and getting sicker . . . Reed' s appearance stirs up untold histories in Lissa' s family, and suddenly she is having to make sense of her past in a way she would never have imagined. Meanwhile, her brother is dealing with a devastating secret of his own. A beautiful and timely coming-of-age story about finding out who you are in the face of crisis and change. Praise for Jane Godwin:' refreshingly unpredictable, bold and refuses to minimise the complex lives of [its] characters' - Saturday Age on As Happy as Here' an empathetic exploration of family, friendship and how all our actions have consequences' - Readings Monthly' gentle, well-written and thoroughly engaging' - Adelaide Advertiser
