Summary: Christmas 1987 marks the one-year anniversary of Lark Hall’s opening for business as an old age home in an English seaside town. But ten-year-old Edward isn’t much in the mood to celebrate. He has had to give up his room; and his Mum and Dad don’t have as much time for him as they used to, overwhelmed as they are with the day-to-day management of the home and the struggle to stave off financial ruin. On the other hand, living in an old folks’ home offers a curious, clever child like Edward the chance to explore what, exactly, comes after death. And went a retired magician moves into the home, Edward shows him to believe in magic again. (Big Beach)
