Edward Gets a Life

By Jan Devenish

Edward Gets a Life is a story largely about secrets, about fear and about how to live. On a smaller level, it is about pigeons, facial hair and sleeping pills. Edward Toska, an unblemished ten year old boy, is kept a prisoner of love in his own home by his mother and forbidden to do all the things that children normally do. Despite his desire to see and explore the world outside the country house he has been stuck in all his life, she is determined to keep him out of harm's way. His mother's fear began after she suffered a rather bizarre and tragic loss which for all Edward's life has been a closely guarded secret. But the mystery starts to unravel when Edward begins investigating the strange goings on in the house, and in the heads of those he lives with. The mysterious letters that Miriam is in such desperation to keep secret prick Edward's curiosity - was someone writing to him? And where would it lead?
