All That You Can Leave Behind - Paperback

by Neil Leatherbarrow (Author)

This wasn't how it was supposed to end. A senseless tragedy leaves a father wondering why his daughter, a charismatic and talented dancer, was taken from him. He pieces the incidents together through memories of his own childhood and the thoughts of those who were closest to his daughter - from teachers, to friends, to her fellow cast members of Billy Elliot the Musical. Telling both the harrowing aftermath of his daughter's death set against his own rough upbringing and adolescence littered with petty crime, Leatherbarrow's true story brings to the fore the realisation that the second chances we get are not always the ones we see coming.
