From the multi-award-winning author of Orangeboy, comes a YA road-trip mystery. I pick up the envelope . . . As I rip down the sides, there s loads of paper bursting out; stuck on flowers, dandelions, roses . . . Spey recently received two surprises. The first: his ex-prisoner dad turning up unannounced, and the second: a mysterious package containing torn-up paper flowers. Spey instantly recognises it as a collage he made with his old friend Dee, and decides she must be in danger, but there are no clues to her whereabouts. There s only one person he knows who can help to track her down . . . On a road trip like no other, will Spey and his dad find Dee, before it s too late?
