Meet Cookie: so nicknamed because she's smart and tough (and because her mum doesn't like her using her real name). She and her delinquent best friend Ash have just finished their GCSEs, and they're determined to make it a summer to remember. But after blagging their way from their Salford tower block to the bohemian bars and beaches of Ibiza, they find things in the hedonistic ravers' paradise aren't entirely what they seem. Between dangerous holiday romances and unravelling family secrets, there's trouble on the island and at home, resulting in a race against time to answer the question: can you ever really escape who you are and where you're from? This powerful, fast-paced and transporting debut novel explores trauma, class, queerness and coming of age, from one of the boldest new voices in Northern writing. Winner of the Northern Debut Award from New Writing North.
