Years after her mother suggests she visits a local medium who then ends up telling Carrie something about that day that nobody could ever have known.
She also meets Molly and her young son Max, the little boy Charlie was playing with just before he disappeared. Max has an invisible friend and a father who beats his mother but he is becoming even more disturbed lately
Then their two worlds collide
Travel Guide
“It was not simply the loss of someone you loved that stayed with you for the rest of your life,it was the loss of the person that you would have been if you had been allowed to have them forever”….
The setting of a Norfolk beach takes you from a peaceful sandy haven where little boys play and their parents sit nearby to a horrible vast space of fear where the sand stretches out and blurs everything from view. That empty cold fear that a parent gets when they loose sight of their child.
Cambridge and Trove
A treasure trove of gifts and trinkets owned by Carrie and her friend Jen – the seasons and the passing of time is evident with the new gifts and displays in the changing store
The store itself is located nit far from the centre of Cambridge and she lives in the fictional hamlet of Parsons Green. The shop stands out as in a town which doesn’t have many individual shops. Carrie’s new life starts here and it’s where her past catches up with her too.
