These Walls Were Never Really There

A compelling debut novel, based on a true story...




'If you had told me then how it was going to end, three thousand miles and almost two years later, would I still have walked out of the door and set off on my journey?'




Twenty-year-old Cameron has left everything behind. Sleeping rough on the streets, witness to the extreme conditions facing Manchester's homeless community, he is propelled on a physical and spiritual journey which will take him far away from the life he once knew...




A surprising story about mental health, friendship and redemption, this compelling debut will take you on a journey across Europe and beyond, as Cameron and his travelling companion, Jacob, navigate packs of wolves, perilous border crossings and the harsh realities of life on the road.
