Fast paced and gripping, this book is intelligently written and achieves so much! It's thought provoking and moving because of the subjects it touches in a compassionate but witty way, but it's also intriguing and mysterious because of the wider story line. The author has done a tremendous job of keeping you engrossed with the back and forth between the characters, their lives and their interconnectivity. This is a book that will grab the imagination, inform about the realities of life and will want you coming back for more. A great first novel in the series and perfect for young readers!

Another fantastic book from Caroline Boxall. It is full of mystery and suspense, which make it difficult to put down. Transform into a different world, even if for a little while. It’s an emotional roller-coaster and the emotions run deep. A perfect read for my 9 year old daughter and I.

Who can resist the challenge to solve a mystery? And this one does not disappoint.This is an exciting opening episode, introducing the reader to the early lives of Billy and Manya, so very different and yet destined to be linked together in a world of spies, secrets and Autumn Days! With its colourful cast of characters Autumn Days Care Home provides the perfect backdrop to the story in unexpected and amusing ways, challenging the reader's perception of "oldies" and dementia.The book is full of surprising twists and thought provoking ideas, culminating in an ending which leaves questions as well as answers. And the good news? There is more to come......!Highly recommended. Caroline Boxall has an amazing talent and great connection with young readers (and not so young, too).

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous page-turner!

I read this amazing story in its original form, and it was excellent then. Now it is brilliant! Caroline Boxall has tweaked the storyline so that it is seamless. Billy's and Manya's characters are even better developed, and the entire story is a roller coaster of action and emotions that keep you turning the pages. I have known dementia firsthand, and I love how Caroline Boxall deals with it in this story in a sensitive and informative way. Billy and Manya are not the only ones who can learn from the lessons gently woven into this narrative. I can't recommend it highly enough!

5.0 out of 5 stars A new classic

Although this is a children’s book, I loved reading it and it kept me engaged all the way through. The characters, settings and story line are exquisite. I am already looking forward to reading the sequel.

Thrilling and impactful read

T.S.F.o.P.A.t.C. · 11 August 2024

Although this book was written for older children/teens, I found it incredibly enjoyable to read as a middle-aged adult. The plot was well-developed and exciting, and kept me guessing throughout. I enjoyed the current technology-related references that will resonate with young people today. Also, I appreciated the way that the topic of dementia is addressed with tenderness and respect - Billy’s relationships with the individuals in the care home is extremely heartwarming. A fantastic read, one that I won’t hesitate to recommend!!
