Schroder by Amity Gaige

Schroder

Amity Gaige

Eric Kennedy, ne Schroder, has had a difficult childhood but does that really excuse his kidnapping and then, let's face it, almost causing the death of his 6 year-old through neglect? Well, in this complex book, it just might. Every reader will need to decide for themselves - and maybe every parent too. Lots of issues here to fire up a reading group discussion. Don't expect an early night!
