Utterly unique and beautifully written, Yellow pulls you into the rhythms of life in a small coastal town its beauty and its harsh realities. But things aren't so simple, and Kirra realises that people can be haunted in more ways than one. She'll prove who murdered him almost twenty years ago if he makes her popular, gets her parents back together, and promises not to haunt her. Her so-called friends bully her, whatever semblance of a mother she had has been drowned at the bottom of a gin bottle ever since her dad left them for another woman, and a teenage ghost is speaking to her through a broken phone booth. If fourteen-year-old Kirra is having a mid-life crisis now, then it doesn't bode well for her life expectancy.
