Have you ever had that feeling that you just needed to escape? Runaway from life, from all its problems; be the one that got away?
Tilly Henshaw has. Tilly wants to escape. Escape her suffocating mum, her dementing gran and finally shake off the stigmatism attached to ADHD; a condition she was diagnosed with when she was fourteen.
When the opportunity arises to escape to the sleepy, Cornish fishing village of Hope Cove, Tilly grabs it with both hands. But she soon discovers that she's not the only one who's runaway to Cornwall and everyone's keeping their reasons for escaping firmly to themselves.
As Tilly starts uncovering family secrets, she begins to understand there is no running away from your problems; you can't build a hopeful future without confronting who and what hurt you in your past.
