Description:The high school is on fire. Aaron Smith, the local bad boy, is arrested at the scene. He’s locked up by the end of the night, guilty until proven innocent. Only two people know the truth about what happened; Aaron and his little sister. Aaron will do anything to save his sister, including going to prison without a trial. But then the pandemic comes to Scotland, and trials are cancelled. Aaron finds himself locked up, in a lockdown, and no one is able to help him. Blood Red Sky is a story of love, loss, humour and hope and makes you wonder; what should we do with teenagers who cross the line? Should we lock them up, or take time to find out the truth?Praise for Blood Red SkyGraeme Armstrong, author of Scots Book of the Year, ‘The Young Team’, An important read about the glamour free YOI custody experience in Scotland for young people, anyone working around or concerned with youth justice (we all should be!).Fiona Dyer, Director, Children & Young People’s Centre for Justice, Despite the darkness that Blood Red Sky explores, this is not a hopeless book. What Sara has done so well is to balance truth with hope and show that with the right support, change is possible. Cycles can be broken. Futures can be reimagined. Relationships can heal.
