Laura is dying. Her last desperate hope is to be frozen until she can be cured. But what happens when you wake up one day and the world has moved on forty years? Your best friend is middle-aged, your parents are presumed dead. Could you find a place to belong? Could you build a new life, while solving the mystery of what happened to the old one?
Kathryn Evans has been an actor, a waitress, a celery cutter and a newspaper deliverer - she's even scrubbed the decks of the Mary Rose. Now she combines being an author with being a mum, running a strawberry farm, volunteering as finance co-ordinator for SCBWI, occasionally performing belly dance and fencing competitively. Kathryn's debut novel More of Me was nominated for the Carnegie Medal and won the 2016 Edinburgh International Book Festival First Book Award - the first YA novel ever to do so.
