With one brother locked up and the other one working with their dad on plans for their next big robbery, they are well-known in their tightknit Welsh community, for all the wrong reasons. When a mysterious act of sabotage lands an old man in hospital, it’s no surprise that Marcus gets the blame. Marcus feels trapped. It’s as if everyone around him already knows who he is, before he’s had a chance to find out for himself. But new girl Emma is different – and not just because she is a peace protester. She wants to get to know him. Is Marcus destined to follow in his father’s footsteps or, with Emma’s help, can he find a way to trust and be trusted? An exciting and moving story about questioning your loyalties, from the author of ‘The Valley of Lost Secrets’.

It’s February 1974 and working class families have been hit hard by the three-day week. The reduced power usage means less hours for people to work, and less money to get by on. Thirteen-year-old Jason feels the struggle keenly. Ever since his parents died, it’s just been him and his older brother Richie. Richie is doing his best, but since he can’t make ends meet he’s been doing favours for the wrong people. Every day they fear they won’t have enough and will have to be separated. One thing that helps distract Jason is the urban legend about a beast in the valleys. A wild cat that roams the forest, far up the river from their bridge. When Jason’s friends learn of a reward for proof of The Beast’s existence, they convince Jason this is the answer to his and Richie’s money problems. Richie can get himself out of trouble before it’s too late and the brothers can stay together. And so a quest begins.
