Sue Townsend, creator of the much-loved Adrian Mole series, tells a compassionate and gritty story of love and loss in Ghost Children. Seventeen years ago Angela Carr aborted an unwanted child. The child's father, Christopher Moore, was devastated by the loss and retreated from the world. However, when he makes a horrifying discovery on the heath, he finds that he is compelled to confront Angela about the past. As they start seeing each other again, can they avoid past mistakes? And will their future together be eclipsed by the mistakes of yesterday?

Critic reviews

‘Bleak, tender and deeply affecting. Seldom have I rooted so hard for a set of fictional individuals.’ MAIL ON SUNDAY
‘Gripping and disturbing. Utterly absorbing.’ INDEPENDENT

A very good tale told from the different perspectives. Sue manages to make all the different characters come to life in a masterful way. This is a topic that is today less of a taboo, but still one. Thank you for giving these children a voice for once.
