Book launch: Hunger by S L Rosewarne | 21st May

Hunger

When Laura’s partner leaves home, their 13-year-old daughter Jess copes by losing weight and getting fit, running for miles along the Cornish coastpath with her beloved dog.

 Her other obsession is photography, and she lives for Saturday mornings, when she and her father meet to take pictures.

 But when they have to move house and change schools, Jess’s world falls  apart and gradually she retreats into anorexia: a fierce, constant battle against starvation. How can Laura persuade Jess to get help before she becomes dangerously ill?

 Laura and Jess must discover the importance of friendships of accepting help, and must learn to trust again with help from their new friends as well as their treasured four-legged companions.

“A strong, emotive and thought-provoking family drama.”  Rosanna Ley

 “Hunger is such a clever, emotive read that grabs your heart and doesn’t let go.” Kerry Barrett
