Toby's Salvation - Paperback

by Kate Fromings (Author), Sonel Pierre (Author)

How far would you go for love?
It's the 1990s, and on the tropical island of Haiti, a teenage girl is about to give birth. The pregnancy was unplanned, unwanted. She feels that her hopes for a career are completely unrealistic. Political upheaval, poverty and low employment rates make her home town an unstable, beautiful, place to live. When she finally gets a job as a holiday rep at a hotel, could this be her chance for freedom?

At the same time, across the ocean in Florida, a family are living 'the good life' in West Palm Beach. Lloyd and Mia Benson love their young daughter Alia, but things turn sour when new neighbours return from Indiana. Will Alia's new 'best friend' be the big sister she's always wanted?
Toby's Salvation brings together an unlikely collection of people, linked by unfortunate circumstances. This suspenseful debut novel from Sonel Pierre explores the themes of loss, love and disability prejudice. It is suitable for readers aged 15+.
