When you are used to it, leaving is the easiest thing in the world-and where the sea is warm and the days linger, it is easier to forget.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut his stepfather is a bully, and the absence of his real father masks a painful truth. Before long, Michaelis learns that no matter how far you go, your past always follows you, trailing questions in its wake.","brand":"Michael Sala","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43516775891005,"sku":null,"price":21.84,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/7689\/2989\/files\/9781925498516.jpg?v=1787572788","url":"https:\/\/www.palmleaf.com.au\/products\/the-last-thread","provider":"Palmleaf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
