Then tragedy strikes in a holiday narrowboat accident having far-reaching consequences for the surviving family and so follows a tale of adventure, danger and romance - and further anguish for Leila's parents. Far Cry From The Turquoise Room is a coming-of-age, riches-to-rags tale of loss, resilience, and self-discovery. It is also about the passage of childhood into puberty.
