Timothy Brum

The compelling story of a lost 9-year-old boy who runs away from a children's home in Birmingham, UK, and hitches a lift to London. Although he is in danger of experiencing horrendous possible outcomes, he is helped by a "tramp." In the meantime his parents have never given up hope that he is alive. This novella follows somewhat in the footsteps of Dickens' Oliver Twist, and is also reminiscent of Mary Higgins Clark. It is not suitable for under 14-year old children.
