"My name is Evie Jackson. I am twenty-one years old, and a Gemini. My mother is an alcoholic waste of space and my father is just a distant memory. It is 2.30am.I am sitting on the pier, staring into the dirty river water. And I am going to die today. People, much like waves, always have things hidden under the surface that most of us will never see. A muffled cry on the back of the bus, a hidden scar under a cosy jumper, another cancelled plan. There are so many hidden signs that someone is struggling, but is anybody really looking?" REVIEWS
