Wilderness by Roddy Doyle


This is two stories in one. Whilst her stepmother and stepbrothers go on holiday, dogsledding in Finland, eighteen year old Grainne is to meet the birth mother who abandoned her when she was three.
As Grainne battles her inner anger and resentment, her stepmother's sled doesn't make it back to the lodge - she's lost and it's up to the boys to find her.
