The Snake-stone by Berlie Doherty

James is adopted. He knows that to work out his future he has to make sense of his past. He embarks on a journey to find his birth-mother who tells her own story in this moving and powerful novel.

‘This story could not be bettered and can only be put down with a struggle before its unforgettable climax’
Independent
