From the multi-award-winning author of Orangeboy, a mystery that will refuse to let you go. A book to break down stereotypes. A story that will stay in your heart long after it ends Sixteen-year-old Becks is a roadman - loud, funny and knows her estate inside out. She's into girls but didn't come out because she was never in. She lives with her mum, stepdad and eighteen-year-old Silva, her stepdad's daughter. Becks and Silva are opposites, but bond over Korean pop and drama. When Becks' mum and stepdad go on honeymoon to Japan, Becks and Silva are left alone. Except, Silva disappears. Becks ventures into the forbidden territory of Silva's room and finds the first of eight clues that help her discover her sister's secret life. Meanwhile, Silva is on a journey. A journey to make someone love her. He says he doesn't, but he's just joking. All she has to do is persuade him otherwise ...(P)2020 Hodder & Stoughton Limited
