It's the heatwave summer of 1976, and 14-year-old would-be poet Jackie Chadwick is newly fostered by the Walls. She desperately needs stability, but their insecure, jealous teenage daughter isn't happy about the cuckoo in the nest and sets about ousting her.
When her attempts to do so lead to near-tragedy—and the Walls' veneer of middle-class respectability begins to crumble—everyone in the household is forced to reassess what really matters.
Funny and poignant, ´Cuckoo in the Nest´ is inspired by Fran Hill's own experience of being fostered. The glorious coming-of-age story set in the summer of 1976 will delight fans of Nina Stibbe and Joanna Glen.
