The Day That Went Missing by Richard Beard
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
How a moment changed everything...
Poignant story of a little boy who drowned in the UK, told by the brother who was with him, and only just saved himself. But oddly little was said following the incident, the family went on with their lives, even finishing their summer vacation, barely speaking about what happened. As if pretending nothing happened. Rarely mentioning the absent family member caused grieving to be stunted. As an adult, the surviving brother sets out to find out what happened. Compelling and surprising - and very interesting.
