Family Snapshot

In early 1980s southern England, opportunities are opening up for a bright young thing like Sadie Emmett. Until one terrible night took it all away from her.

Now she has closed herself away from the world. A single mother; abused, wary, fiercely protective of her son, and fiercely secretive about his origins.

Until she meets Jay, a big-hearted student, with a bright smile and a dark past.

A closed book and an open book. Brought together – and blown apart – by a child.

Family Snapshot explores the delicate development of a profound relationship, forged in the white heat of a damaged past, and asked to make peace with it.

“A profound love story that both challenges and delights.”

Monica Wraysbury

“A unique story of love, loss and healing, with a dark twist, that beautifully blends the heart-warming with psychological and emotional weight.”

Marian Starkes

Saving Grayson

Jamie Grayson has lost himself. Stripped of his self esteem, he has been imprisoned not only by an injustice done to him by his so-called friends, but by the deeper chain of society’s paradoxical work ethic, in the unemployment crisis of the the early 1980s. Unable to achieve its demands, and therefore a ‘lesser’ man.

Sasha Morris is finding herself. Expelled from three public schools, a childhood of misunderstanding and an over-tendency to hit the emotion button, she is carving her place from interchangeable front door keys with her mates, unlimited supplies of peanut butter and digging about in canals.

Saving jam jars. Saving the planet. Saving Grayson?

But with a little help from an insightful old lady, a plague of frogs, and Richard Branson, neither of them ends up quite where they started.

And both of them discover that saving goes both ways…
