For as long as Gemma can remember it-s been her and Mum against the world. They''re as close as can be, but deep down she longs to get to know the rest of her family - Gran and Mum-s brother Joe - the family Mum turned her back on around the time Gemma was born.
With the summer holidays approaching, Mum is invited on an adults-only holiday. Gemma spots a chance to uncover the story behind the family rift and convinces Mum to let her stay with Joe. He-s the perfect uncle - fun, friendly and generous, and even signs her up for tennis camp. But Gemma can-t shake the feeling that he and Gran are keeping secrets. As the truth emerges, can Gemma find a way to bring her family back together?
A heartfelt story of complex families, forgiveness and new beginnings, for fans of Jacqueline Wilson, Lisa Thompson, Susin Nielsen and Cath Howe.
