Über diesen Titel
An Eden Book Society Edition.
Featuring bonus material including a new foreword by Charlie Higson.
You must do what the doctor says.
Organ donation is in its infancy, and Daisy Howard, who is giving a kidney to her aunt, is in the hands of a pioneering surgeon. After the operation, Daisy is desperate to get back to her family, yet the days go by and she remains in the hospital. Meanwhile, an old friend keeps visiting with news of home, and Daisy becomes increasingly uneasy.
Shirley Longford was a prolific writer of children’s fiction under a variety of pseudonyms. Published in 1972 by The Eden Book Society, A Dedicated Friend was her first and only foray into horror writing. A chilling and suspenseful story of misplaced trust, looking at the book now, more than 45 years since first publication, a wider question becomes apparent: what use is technological progress when we remain as cruel as ever?
