Brixton Beach – Indie Book of the Month
Continuing with our reading notes series, Fifth Estate is very pleased to feature the exciting new release from the Roma Tearne, the author of Mosquito, which was shortlisted for the Costa First Novel Prize.

Opening dramatically with the horrors of the 2005 London bombings, Brixton Beach is the profoundly moving story of a country on the brink of civil war and a child’s struggle to come to terms with loss.
