CLOSED DOORS

All Alice King wants, is to be alone. That way nobody else can hurt her.
Silently struggling with the death of her brother, Alice’s oh-so-perfect family is slowly falling apart and her ‘friends’ are drifting out of her reach. However, she is still smiling her way through – she’s ‘fine’ – but a smile can hide so much. It’s only when she meets Connor, the school bully, that she starts thinking about how appearances can deceive. She can tell that underneath this layer of cool and his badass reputation, this boy is just as hopeless as she is and Alice is determined to make him speak. Can Alice realise that life isn’t all about giving – but taking too? Because life doesn’t stop when someone disappears – and even though she’s lost so much, can Alice see what she has to gain?
