I knew STRAIGHTAWAY that something was WRONG on Monday morning when Mum didn't wake me up for school. With his grandma snoring in the kitchen and his older sister spending hours getting ready for school, it's up to Jake to discover where his missing mum might be. Life at home wasn't perfect, but he can't understand why she would simply run off like this. And why doesn't anyone else seem to care? A heartfelt, funny and unique ode to perfectly imperfect families.
"A child launches into detective mode after his mother goes suddenly missing in Moloney’s London-set, character-driven debut... More family story than whodunit, the plot turns toward emotional discoveries via an arc of maturation and finding hope despite life’s uncertainties."
