Family bonds are tested when a fishing expedition nosedives into near tragedy in this Truth of Things novella from Carnegie Medal winner Anthony McGowan.

A stunning companion piece to Brock from award-winning Anthony McGowan. Nicky and Kenny return in Pike as a fishing expedition nosedives into near tragedy. The Bacon Pond is famous for its monster-sized fish and Kenny is determined to catch one. And as usual, Nicky is dragged along for the ride. But when the boys glimpse what could be a body in the water – the body of a well-known local criminal who's just been announced missing – the secrets of the Bacon Pond might just take them all down. Sometimes it's better not to look too deep.
