Beskrivelse
Everything changes for Judy Manners the moment Mum runs off to an artists' commune on a remote Scottish island. Overnight, she goes from being happy and normal to depressed and introverted - even before a Polish Punk moves in with Dad to compound her misery.
Taking herself in hand, Judy begins to write down her experiences, trying to make sense of her chaotic emotions. Soon, she starts to piece together all the clues and make some sense of what is happening. Trusting her instincts and encouraged by her boyfriend, Milo, she embarks on a fantastic coming of age journey of discovery, following in Mum's footsteps, using Dad's psychological skills to guide her.
It is a dangerous quest that takes her to the dark heart of London's drug scene and, through Glasgow's mean streets, eventually to the safe haven of the Isle of Mull, where it seems Mum is leading an idyllic existence. Then tragedy strikes - but might it actually lead to her parents being reunited?
This is a warm and tender work of teenage fiction that captures all the heartache and joy and the strength and vulnerability of being young and romantic.
