"I know that it’s ridiculous. I know that you're not real.

 

But sometimes, just sometimes... It's nice to pretend you are."

 

Helen is a 26 year old art student. She is quiet, a little lost and living on the outskirts of a world that never seemed to have a place for her in it. She is okay though. She has a friend; the best friend in the whole world. 

 

The only trouble is, he doesn't exist. 

 

But when his voice in her head saves her from certain death, her mind slowly starts to unravel, calling everything into question as she finally comes to terms with what she didn't even realise had been haunting her her whole life. 

 

This is Helen's heart-breaking story of how the most innocent of secrets - carrying an imaginary friend into adulthood - can mask the deepest of traumas, following her journey of love, acceptance and forgiveness as she battles with her own mind.
