Indigo Blue

Summary

Indigo Blue by Cathy Cassidy is a powerful, tender novel for girls aged 9+

'I need a seriously brilliant daydream . . . because everything is far from OK . . .'

When Indigo's mum announces that they're moving - just Indie, Mum and baby Misti - Indie doesn't understand. Why the hurry? Where are they going? Will her best friend, Jo, still be there for her?

In a dingy old flat with a grumpy neighbour, no heating and only biscuits to eat, Indie begins to realize that her mum's got a reason for running away - a secret no one can admit . . .

Will Indigo choose her family or her friends?

'Touching, tender and unforgettable' - Guardian
