The Stars At Oktober Bend

Alice Nightingale is fifteen, with hair as red as fire and skin as pale as bone, but something inside her is broken.

Manny James runs at night, trying to escape his memories. He sees Alice on the roof of her river-house, looking like a figurehead on a ship sailing through the stars.

He has a poem in his pocket and he knows the words by heart. He is sure that girl has written them.

The Stars at Oktober Bend is so beautifully and so carefully written it seems that each word is pure gold... a story of forgiveness and redemption, told with passion, heart and humour; it is unforgettable.' - Books for Keeps
