SNAP DECISIONS CAN BE DANGEROUS . . .

On a stifling summers day, eleven-year-old Jack and his two sisters sit in their broken-down car, waiting for their mother to come back and rescue them. Jacks in charge, shed said. I wont be long.

But she doesnt come back. She never comes back. And life as the children know it is changed forever.

Three years later, Jack is still in charge - of his sisters, of supporting them all, of making sure nobody knows theyre alone in the house, and - quite suddenly - of finding out the truth about what happened to his mother . . .
