Description
The world may tip at any moment - the secret is finding something to hold onto...
Pearl's baby sister is The Rat - she's the reason Pearl's mum died. The reason that Pearl's life has changed forever and Pearl isn't sure she'll ever be able to forgive her for that. Losing her mum is the hardest thing that Pearl has ever gone through and no-one, not her dad, her interfering granny, her best friend - and especially not her new little sister - can break the barriers she's putting up. But what if Pearl's mum isn't completely gone? What if, somehow, she's still here?
A debut novel that will capture your heart, Pearl's story is full of bittersweet humour and heart-breaking honestly. Perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult, Meg Rosoff and John Green.
