Another great read this week 👍🏻 thanks to Helen‘s original review and it‘s all over book Twitter!
Nostalgic, but tackling some dark subjects. Had a tear in my eye at the end.
It‘s Yorkshire in 1979 and 12 year old Miv overhears her father talking about moving away, which Miv is convinced is due to the Yorkshire Ripper murders so, along with her best friend Sharon, she decides to try to catch him.
Along the way she encounters many other dirty neighbourhood secrets, including racism and domestic violence, so it‘s not an easy read but I still loved it.

#Sundayfunday no, the setting is Yorkshire during the late 70s and early 80s, when the Yorkshire Ripper was active! The book was a huge disappointment, sadly.
