Punch cover

Wrong place. Wrong time. A boy on the run.

THE MARKET'S ON FIRE. FIRE! FIRE! THE BOY DID IT! 

Smoke belches out through the market entrance. 

And me? 

I turn and run. 

Inverness 1889. 

When 12-year-old Phin is accused of a terrible crime, his only option is to flee. In the unlikely company of an escaped prisoner and a group of travelling entertainers, he enters a new world of Punch and Judy shows and dancing bears.

But will Phin clear his name?

And what can he do when memories of a darker, more terrible crime begin to haunt him?

'PUNCH is good proper storytelling, packed with colourful characters, shifting settings and real tension. Like Punch's nose I was hooked and with Phineas every fleeing, hiding, performing page of the way.'
