At first, Lucinda seems to have everything under control. But then the terrible thing happens with her boyfriend Jarvis, and Malina sees her sister drift off towards the darkness … Intense, undisguised, haunting and with no finger-wagging, the multi-award-winning Lara Schützsack tells a story of anorexia and a sensitive sisterly relationship.
