When Niki and her mum suddenly have to move to London to live with a grandfather Niki thought had died years ago, it is the start of a whole new life for her.
In London, Niki has to learn quickly how to survive and fit in in the school halls and on the tough streets, while getting to know her grandad and coming to terms with the fact that her mum hasn't always been straight with her.
But when Niki suddenly discovers her mum's biggest lie of all, could it change their relationship - and Niki's identity - for good?
A beautifully written coming of age story by a talented new author. No Use Crying deals with issues of family, bereavement, truth and identity in a colourful, witty yet moving way. Zannah Kearns brings the streets of London - and especially the voices of its locals - vividly to life for teen readers.
