Walter's Song

Christmas 1962.  The beginning of the Big Freeze, when rivers wouldn't melt until March. But that Christmas Eve one little boy isn't dreaming of Santa or snowmen. Six-year-old Walter has only one Christmas wish, to uncover the secret treasure that is hidden in his dad's shed…

In Walter's Song we meet Walter when he is just a lad, but the story gives us a real insight into the man he will become. Walter – all grown up – appears again in the novel, The Forgotten Children, the emotional story of a young woman, Emily, who is searching for her son. Emily travels to the Isle of Anglesey, where she meets a gentle stranger – Walter – who helps her with his kindness and words of wisdom.
