This young adult novel twists storylines of friendship, family, environmental and personal commitments.
Fourteen year old Maya has her summer plans ruined when she is whisked to Cornwall to stay with her Gran & Grandpa. But it the lies she tells that feeds into each storyline to create emotional family and business havoc.
Working at the family business gives Maya more than just pocket money. She sees both the workings of the factory, how the employees feel and the impact of cosmetic production on the environment.
Alongside Maya’s newfound interest in Bear, a teenager just like herself but who lives in an environmentally friendly camp, leads her to tell lie after lie to “fit in” with each aspect; family, work life, new found friendships.
But only after a devastating accident happens does Maya know it’s time to tell the truth.
Honest, gripping writing with twists to unveil what really matters within our lives.
