A Shadow Walking Anne Todd

He probably saw me as an immature, outspoken and thoroughly irritating iconoclast. I certainly hoped he did, at least- I worked hard at that...

Meet Alison Weston - outspoken and passionate, a popular and successful English teacher who loves her job and hates Government interference in education. But her confident world is about to be shattered.

She will discover that love and integrity don't always walk together, and that principles may not pay the bills. As her world unravels, will Alison be strong enough to escape the shadows - or will she be forced to walk within them for the rest of her life?

Written by a former teacher, A Shadow Walking takes a memorable and poignant look at the disintegration of trust in the crumbling world of austerity-ridden England.
