The missing boy
by Rachel Billington
Thirteen-year-old Dan hasn't returned home; his parents don't know whether he's run away, been kidnapped - or something worse. For one family, the world is about to fall apart. At first Dan is sleeping rough, revelling in his independence. But with every passing day, his world is becoming darker and more frightening. A hundred thousand children run away each year. Most come back. But will Dan? Dan's mother, Eve, a drama teacher, can't focus; his father, Max, only knows how to flee his own demons; and his aunt, Martha, while trained to control difficult situations as a prison officer, struggles to hold it all together. Gradually, all three begin to recognise just how badly they have failed the missing boy.
