Product Description

Synopsis
When Mattie's mother dies, Mattie begins to discover that a lot of things her mother told her about her childhood weren't true after all. And the more Mattie tries to unravel the past, the more secrets and mysteries she comes across. Mattie eventually discovers that the person she thought of as her mother, had in fact abducted her from her real parents when she was only a baby. 'A gripping mystery' - The Times. Well-written, powerful novel that will keep readers turning the pages to the end. Sue Welford is a recognized name with booksellers and is an OUP author we are keen to build. Striking cover links this with other Sue Welford novels for the same age group.

5.0 out of 5 stars This The BEST Book I Have Ever Read!!!!!!, 13 Nov 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Shadow of August (Paperback)
It is book that you can't put down I would recomend it strongly to children my age(11)and over.It has mystery and adventure.It is one of the best books I have ever read although Harry Potter has stired my imagination. I enjoyed the book from the beggining to the end.I can't really say what was my favourite bit but I enjoyed the bit when she kept on seeing the two figures and the ending when she found out everything.I won't say much about it for those who haven't read it yet but I could go on for ever saying how good it is.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Shadow Of August - Fantastic!!!, 16 Jun 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Shadow of August (Paperback)
An amazing book, wriiten a very sensitive way. The book appears to be very confusing but everything becomes clear, honest. Although the parts of the book entitled Kelly make no sense what so ever at first, ensure you read them, the are a vital piece to the jigsaw. Sue Welford really captures matties emotions. This is the best book I have ever read. A must have for everyone!!!!!! Once you start reading you won't be able to put it down!!
