About this ebook

If you laughed and cried reading Anna McPartlin's bestselling story The Last Days of Rabbit Hayes or Alice Oseman's Heartstopper, then Somewhere Inside of Happy will have you smiling and tearful all over again.
-----------------
'And just like that my boy was gone.'


Maisie Brennan is standing on a podium on the twentieth anniversary of the death of her son, trying to find the first breath that will help her start talking to a room full of strangers. A daunting task at the best of times, but she's also menopausal and one hot flush away from totally losing it.

But as Maisie begins her story, she soon relaxes and word by word disappears into her past, back to 1st January 1995 – the day when one misunderstood action led to a chain of events that changed her life for ever...
