[[Teen Fiction | Romance | LGBT | Trigger Warning: Suicide]]

17-year-old Alfie Rees committed suicide, leaving no note and plenty of unanswered questions. Through a series of letters, those closest to him - the girlfriend, the best friend, the twin brother, the childhood friend and the outsider - reminisce, ask questions and begin to explore a life without him in it. 

What begins as an exercise suggested by a bereavement counsellor quickly becomes a lifeline, as the friends cling desperately to any part of Alfie they can. However, the letters lead them to question everything. Could they have done more to stop him? Who are they without him? Just how well did they really know Alfie Rees?
