The Shoulder of Giants

Like many teenagers, Will is haunted by the question: 'When are you going to grow up?'

During his parents' separation, Will is sent away from the city to live with his grandparents among the rugged Cumbrian fells and lakes. This is a place with no colour TV or mobile phone reception and, worst of all, nowhere to use his computer games. But far from being bored, Will soon uncovers well-kept family secrets and other local mysteries that will threaten the lives of those he loves.

Through his bitter-sweet encounters with a colourful array of local characters, Will finds, in the most unexpected places, real 'grown-up' giants-upon whose shoudlers he can lean in his quest for manhood-and the key to true love, real contentment and lasting happiness. This is the first book in the 4-part Will Houston Mysteries series for teens, adolescents, and upwards to adults.

More subtly, the nine parts of this novel explores the nine 'fruits of the Spirit' from Scripture (Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Humility, Self-Control, etc.).
