She grew up in Ireland and England, taught English in the United States, and now lives in Hertfordshire, England.
About the Author: Sarah Crossan is the author of The Weight of Water, which was short-listed for the Carnegie Medal, as well as Breathe and Resist.
From the author of the acclaimed The Weight of Water comes a beautifully-crafted, moving novel about family, betrayal, and the ultimate path to healing.
It\'s only when Apple meets her younger sister, Rain-someone more lost than she is- that she begins to see things for how they really are, allowing Apple to discover something that might help her to feel truly whole again.
In order to heal completely, her mother will have to answer one burning question: Why did she abandon her? But just like the stormy Christmas Eve when she left, her mother\'s homecoming is bittersweet.
