Lissa's world has turned upside down for the second time. The first time was when her father was sent to jail. The second time is when he comes home. Lissa had got used to the taunts at school when her father was away, but now he has come home it has made Lissa realise how angry and betrayed she feels by what her father did to her and her family. She cannot forgive him - nor can she forgive her mother for, as she sees it, accepting him back too easily.
So when she overhears her father on the telephone seemingly going back to his old ways, she feels doubly betrayed. Diane Connell, the new girl at school is the only person who understands. And Diane always has good ideas on how to solve Lissa's problems. But Diane is not so straightforward herself, as Lissa is about to find out . . .
This is a fast-paced, brilliant story about the true nature of loyalty and friendship.
