Red Moon - Secrets of a Sixties School Girl

Andrea Hampton is going to break through the north midland gloom and her fog of misery her way - she'll get Brendan James, and be like the older girls. But Andrea hasn't planned on the possibility of being a teenage mum, or, on the move to London, where life could be fun... Red Moon: secrets of a 60s schoolgirl is based on the author's life in the mid-1960s, UK. It's a world of pirate radio, Beatles, mods and rockers, suspenders, and a horse called Flash, against bleak moors, fog and furnaces to final sunshine. This is an evocation of teenage rebellion, discontent and decisions, amidst grief, love and longing, taking the reader on a pathway from the dark and difficult, to the lighter and brighter. An initiation of sorts. A coming of age.
