A vibrant, evocative and magical debut which centres a positive, empowered disabled character at the heart of a reimagining of Little Red Riding Hood.
The woods are hiding a secret… but then so is Red…
Red is not allowed to go into the woods. Everyone knows that they are dangerous – because of their strange magic and the wolves that lurk there… But Red finds herself increasingly drawn to the woods and the place where her grandmother disappeared without a trace three years ago. When the woodcutter fails to return home one night and wolves are spotted close to the village boundary, fear drives a deep and dangerous divide between the villagers and the nature they live alongside.
Only Red seems to hold the key – but she has a secret, and exposing it could ruin her family forever …

'A starkly beautiful fairytale. Told in clear, crisp prose, sleek as the song of a wolf, Red, with her mysterious grandmother, forbidden gifts and softly blurred view of the world is a heroine you'll want to follow into the woods at nightfall.' Cerrie Burnell, author, actor and activist
