Only Child

'Brilliantly heartbreaking' Lucy Diamond

We all went to school as normal that Tuesday. Not all of us came home . . .

When the unthinkable happens, Zach is at school. Huddled in a cloakroom with his classmates and teacher, he is too young to understand that life will never be the same again.

Afterwards, the once close-knit community is left reeling. Zach's dad retreats. His mum sets out to seek revenge. Zach, scared, lost and confused, disappears into his super-secret hideout to try to make sense of things. Nothing feels right - until he listens to his heart . . .

But can he show the grown-ups how to love again?
