About this product

Product Information

In the aftermath of World War One, everyone is trying to rebuild their lives. If Ben is to avoid being sent back to the orphanage, he needs to find his brother Sam, wounded in action and is now missing. Lotti's horrible aunt and uncle want to send her away to boarding-school (when she has just so successfully managed to get expelled from her last one!) And Clara, their young teacher, is waiting for news of her missing fiance. Just as they think they've found their feet in the new order, disaster strikes, and Lotti and Ben must get away. And so they hatch a plan - to cross the Channel on Ben's narrowboat and find Sam. And there's something in France that Lotti is looking for, too... Buffeted by storms, chased by the police, Lotti, Ben, Clara and a growing number of dogs set out on an epic journey, on the search for lost loved ones and a place to call home.

  • Compelling page turner

    Great children’s adventure story; compelling page turner. Characters clearly depicted. Lottie’s guardians fit the traditional ‘baddies’, out to benefit from Lottie’s inheritance which gives her the right in the reader’s eyes to make their lives as difficult as possible. Lottie and Ben very different characters- their connection? Both are orphans. Good to see Lottie the stronger more confident personality! Not convinced I would have 5e courage to cross the channel in a narrow boat!
