SNAP DECISIONS CAN BE DANGEROUS . . .
On a stifling summer''s day, eleven-year-old Jack and his two sisters sit in their broken-down car, waiting for their mother to come back and rescue them. Jack''s in charge, she''d said. I won''t be long.
But she doesn''t come back. She never comes back. And life as the children know it is changed for ever.
Three years later, Jack is still in charge - of his sisters, of supporting them all, of making sure nobody knows they''re alone in the house, and - quite suddenly - of finding out the truth about what happened to his mother . . .
