The Ask and the answer
Having arrived in the safe haven that is now renamed New Prentisstown, under the rule of Mayor, now called President, Prentiss, Todd and Viola are separated. Viola is healed at a hospital by female healers, while Todd is locked up in a tower with the old mayor of the town, and is set to work together with Davy Prentiss. Set to work to put the new order of things into place.
Alice in Time
Things are at crisis point for 14-year-old Alice. Her mum is ruining her life, her dad’s getting remarried and she has to wear a hideous bridesmaid’s dress, she can’t stand her little brother Rory, and Sasha, the most popular girl at school, hates her guts. Then something very odd happens: Alice falls off a roundabout and finds that she is seven years old again. Reliving the past with her 14-year-old consciousness, she gains a disconcerting new perspective on her family and friendships, and she is forced to confront the truth of her parents’ separation and question her former loyalties. Returning to her teenage self, Alice discovers that her experience has brought about some extraordinary changes and that life will never be the same again.
17 Martin Street
When Hetty’s family move to Martin Street near Portobello bridge in Dublin, they’re not sure of their welcome. And next door, Ben’s family are not sure about their new Jewish neighbours: it’s The Emergency and they are suspicious of strangers. But for Ben, the chance to earn a few pence is too great and secretly he does odd jobs for them. And there’s a bigger secret: Renata, a World War Two refugee, is on the run in the city. Hetty is determined to rescue her. The web of secrets begins to unravel and there are lives at risk. Can Hetty and Ben overcome their differences and save Renata, or are they just meddling in things they know too little about?
