In Shadowmouth a troubled teenager is thrown out by his single mother and is taken in by a middle-aged single man. Glide and The Mind of the Meeting are short radio plays.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781840029666\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Oberon Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40814451949774,"sku":"9781840029666","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_a11c77a3-a5e1-4ec2-a9c4-1b3af95bf032.jpg?v=1642754061","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781840029666","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
