'The stars shine brightest out of the deepest dark'. Hester is a young girl of dark beginnings and few words. She is kept at home by her painfully reclusive parents and allowed no contact with the world outside the front door. And yet Hester finds joy in life's ordinary moments - to her, everything is an Alice-in-Wonderland discovery. But from the moment Hester is forced to attend school, she quickly learns that there are some things she cannot tell her parents. She knows that 'a secret has no sound; it lives in your darkest corner where it sits and waits'. Until the day the secret can no longer be contained and Hester reclaims her freedom with one final, powerful act. Published around the world to huge acclaim, "One Foot Wrong" firmly establishes the arrival of an immensely talented new writer. You will not forget this powerful and haunting story..
