Synopsis

The compelling story of a lost 9-year-old boy who runs away from a children's home in Birmingham, UK, and hitches a lift to London. Although he is in danger of experiencing horrendous possible outcomes, he is helped by a "tramp". In the meantime his parents have never given up hope that he is alive. This novella follows somewhat in the footsteps of Dickens' Oliver Twist, and is also reminiscent of Mary Higgins Clark. It is not suitable for under 14-year old children.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

Beautifully written, a story which touches on many of the problems of our day while keeping things in the perspective of the Christian Gospel. --Jennifer Whittaker, Associate Priest, United Benefice of Martley, Wichenford and the Lower Teme Valley, UK.

Timothy Brum is a sensitive, thought provoking novella with interesting characters who open our eyes to the truth of the words of John Bradford, 16th century Prebendary of St Paul's Cathedral: "There, but for thr grace of God, go I." It will cause the reader to think again about the lives and situations of the homeless, both adults and children. --Helen Sandison, M.A. Cantab., B.Th. Oxon, F.R.G.S.
