'Beautifully observed, deeply humane' Marina KempCan we live fully when we are too afraid to be seen? Rhianne is about to find outRhianne expresses her inner world through line and colour. This summer, though, back home in the west country, she is seeking distraction in heat and noise.

Sharp knives. Hot plates. Little time to think.Her dad, Dominic, is concerned for Rhianne but relieved to have her close. Her step-mum, Melissa, is on alert, though trying to tread carefully.
