About the Author
Elin Heron is a recent graduate with Distinction of the Open University MA in Creative Writing. Her short fiction has been published in Lucent Dreaming, who this year acquired her debut novel for young adults, JUDE. Most of Elin's stories tend towards the uncanny and magical, and they have also been published in Ram Eye Press, Fiddler's Green and Litro Online. She has a number of long list mentions to her name including with Retreat West and Mslexia. Her short story, JOHN TRUSLOVE, was in the final fifty entries to the BBC Short Story Competition 2021 before being published in Issue 11 of Lucent Dreaming. Elin's poetry has been published in Mslexia and in 2015 she was the overall winner of the Not About Heroes/Feelgood Theatre War Poetry competition. Her poetry also examines the same themes of strangeness and the supernatural, and she is currently creating a body of work looking at this in the context of family lines, curses and the Welsh landscape.

Fifteen-year-old Nick has just finished his GCSEs and is stuck at home in the seaside village of Brexenham, waiting for his results. What starts as a boring summer quickly transforms though, as Nick meets Jude Fletcher, a wild and otherworldly boy staying in a horse-drawn caravan while his father, Robin, restores the church's stained glass. Nick is pulled into their world by Jude's natural magic and the captivating tales he tells around the campfire. But the disappearance of local girl, Jemma Cox hangs over the community and Nick's father, a senior police officer, heads an increasingly desperate investigation to find her. -- Publisher: Lucent Dreaming
