This book tells the story of a young girl called Martha and a boy called Scott.
Martha is very different from other children her age. Her
parents are strict members of a religious group called the “righteous”, who’s
rules forbid her from having ANY of today’s luxuries, and she is forced to keep
her family’s terrible secret of Abomination covered up.
Martha is bullied at school because of her homemade clothes
and miserable personality, but when Scott arrives at her school he feels sorry
for her and they become best friends.
Can Martha keep her families secret hidden for any longer?
Robert Swindells has written this book in a diary form,
therefore I would highly recommend this book to everyone, I am 13 and I loved
it.
