Summary
In the quiet of a New Zealand winter’s night, a rescue helicopter is sent to airlift a five-year-old boy with severe internal injuries. He’s fallen from the upstairs veranda of an isolated farmhouse, and his condition is critical. At first, Finn’s fall looks like a horrible accident; after all, he’s prone to sleepwalking.

Critics Review
Original, wonderfully written and utterly gripping, this is a corker of a tale. * The Sun *After The Fall is a gripping tale that would appeal to fans of Jodi Picoult and Joanna Trollope… A page turning book to while away a winter’s evening. * Red Online *Jodi Picoult had better look over her shoulder - she’s got a new contender by the name of Charity Norman. * Sydney Morning Herald *A gripping story, which touches on the fragility of trust, the strength of love and, of course, second chances. This is Norman’s second novel. Her style is emerging as reminiscent of bestselling author Jodi Picoult. * Sunday Canberra Times *Will appeal to devotees of Joanna Trollope and Jodi Picoult… [Norman] is hot on their heels. * Daily Mail on Freeing Grace *Easy to read, hard to put down, it’ll move you to tears. * Easy Living on Freeing Grace *
