This is the story of Cassie and the three men who shape her life; of her needs and her rewards and finally her developing and necessary self-sufficiency.
In selecting The Waiting Game as joint prize-winner in NEL's Young Writers' Award, one of the judges, Martyn Goff, Director of the National Book League wrote:
"Real blood runs in its characters' veins. It is Cassie and her relationships to the three men which are marvellously realised. The reader quickly cares enough about her to make it very difficult to put the book down until her last word has been read."
