Interest Age Teen Reading Age 8+ Can faith or medicine save Luke’s sister’s life? Eleanor Updale’s roller-coaster story is needle-sharp and thought provoking as it follows events after Anna is knocked down in the terrible car crash. Luke allows Anna to be taken to hospital in an ambulance even though he knows that his parents will be furious. Medicine is against their religion; their leader Pastor David has taught them that prayer can heal. As Anna is in hospital recovering from her operation, Luke finds himself caught between the doctors and his parents’ faith. What should he believe? When he begins to be sure, Luke knows he must expose the truth – whatever the cost.
Particularly suitable for struggling, reluctant and dyslexic readers aged 12+
