This is a gentle romance at the same time as being a gentle coming of age story.
Niv does not like skiing nor does she want to go to university. Her passion is for working with wood. Then along comes Jean-Louis with his one set of problems mainly to do with his dysfunctional mother. Can Niv survive her poor GCSE results? Can her relationship with Jean-Louis continue? Will she regain her mother’s trust and affection? All of this set against a backdrop of snow, mountains and two igloos.
There is pace and tension a plenty in Jennifer Burkinshaw’s Igloo.
