Book Synopsis
Five minutes is all it takes. Five minutes of violence in the wartime blackout. Five minutes that cast a very long shadow. After war ends, little Kenny lives with his granny who can't find words to explain where he has come from. He knows not to ask. His friend Gemma only knows her daddy as a framed picture on her mother's dresser. As the children grow up, they become aware of yawning gaps in their histories. They each meet a person offering shelter and warmth. But at what cost? What to do when a shelter becomes a cage? Who can dare to bite the hand that feeds? An intriguing story which is deeply insightful into the impact of early experience of loss and secrets on adult relationships. Jenny Dover, author of Reaching and Teaching Through Educational Psychotherapy: A Case Study Approach
