Your memory can kill. To forget is a blessing.
Cole fears the forest bounding his run-down town of Hintersford; a forest he is certain hides a sinister mystery linked to the panic attacks which started four months earlier.
But when Cole’s mum is kidnapped, his only hope of rescuing her is to escape into it and seek help.
Yet as Cole, with his best friend Radha – her mum also mysteriously taken, ventures deeper into this otherworldly place, he makes a shocking discovery about his past, one that forces him to question everything he knows about himself and his home. And as Radha desperately tries to call the police, Cole has the sinking dread that no one will answer – that no one can answer.
In uncovering the truth, he risks losing the very person he set out to save.
We Are Made of Stars is a young adult science fiction novel about love and loss; the fallibility of those we look up to; and the affirming power of friendship.
