Description
Mikey Walsh's gripping sequel to Gypsy Boy picks up where his story left off, as he struggles to escape the Romany gypsy camp he grew up in. After centuries of persecution, Mikey faces a daunting reality: if you choose to leave, you can never truly come back. With a contract out on his life and gangs of gypsy thugs hunting him down, Mikey's world is turned upside down. He must confront the harsh realities of his past and the ancient heritage that defines him. As he navigates this treacherous new landscape, Mikey begins to discover a sense of self and belonging that eluded him for so long. A heart-wrenching coming-of-age story, On the Run is a powerful exploration of identity, family, and the search for a place to call home.
