The Truth of Things (2) - Pike
€ 9.99
ISBN: 9780008739041
Family bonds are tested when a fishing expedition nosedives into near tragedy in this novella from Carnegie Medal winner Anthony McGowan.
When Nicky spots a glint of gold down in the murky depths of Bacon Pond, he can't ignore it. It could mean money for his family, and money helps patch things up when you haven't got any.
But sometimes it's better not to look too deep. Not when there are local gangsters involved and tough questions about your family's past.
Nicky knows it's a bad idea to go back - it could ruin everything. But if he can't leave it alone, will the secrets of Bacon Pond drag them all down?
Particularly suitable for readers aged 11+ with a reading age of 9.
