Description
Kenny, Sim and Blake embark on a remarkable journey of friendship after stealing the urn containing the ashes of their best friend Ross. They set out from Cleethorpes to travel the 261 miles to the tiny hamlet of Ross in Dumfries and Galloway, a fitting memorial for a 15-year-old boy who changed their lives through his friendship.
After a depressing and dispiriting funeral, the boys feel that taking Ross to Ross will be a meaningful way to remember him. But as they journey, they begin to realise just how much Ross can still affect their lives, even though he's no longer with them.
This powerful novel explores the themes of friendship, loss and suicide, and the ways in which people can continue to impact our lives long after they're gone. Written by Keith Gray, it's a moving and thought-provoking story about the enduring power of friendship and the importance of remembering those who have gone before us.
