Now back in print -- the masterful and moving first novel by the acclaimed author of Cal.

When Brother Sebastian, nee Michael Lamb, runs away from a bleak reformatory, taking with him twelve-year-old Owen Kane, the media and the police call it a kidnapping. For Lamb, though, it is a rescue of a formerly abused boy from a place of no hope, a last grasp at an elusive happiness. But as the outside world closes in, as time and money run out, Lamb finds himself moving towards a solution that is as shocking as it is loving.

"The alert and feeling realism of MacLaverty's story ... has a rare purity of intention and texture.... A deeply moving first novel". -- The Guardian

"A performance of great assurance and tenderness". -- The Spectator
