My Little Brother

For years the narrator has lived in exile, blamed for the disappearance of a little brother on an ordinary school day, when the narrator was only ten and was supposed to be in charge. Now two siblings who have been missing for twenty years turn up within a day of each other, one dead and one alive.

Someone with a dark secret now wants the narrator to come back, and that person holds the keys to the truth. The narrator has to travel back to the Welsh village where childhood was spent, in search of that answer, while facing a secret of their own, something that was done and cannot be undone.

The novel is about guilt, family and the questions that remain when someone is never found. It suits readers who like suspense built around old secrets and a sense of unfinished family history.
