Nobody ever tells Lizzie anything. Her mother’s dead and her father’s hiding in his work. So when she slips away into the Canadian wilderness with her friend Bobby to find out about her family, no one really notices.
The truths she uncovers about her great-grandparents’ past are laced with dangerous secrets.
Nobody must be allowed to know what happened. And nobody wants to take the blame.
Based on a true story and a real, raw quest for truth, Silver River Shadow shines a light on a country’s darkest secrets and the extraordinary people who worked to bring them to the world. With gorgeous illustrations, this beautifully written book is perfect for 8+ fans of Katherine Rundell, Tom Palmer and Onjali Rauf.
