Sadie Grant is no stranger to battles and struggles, having been born with a disfiguring disability. Her childhood is wrought with alienation, a severe hatred for herself and a crushing loneliness. A small act of kindness causes her to pivot, and, for the first time in her young life, Sadie witnesses the joy of the one thing she’s only ever dreamed of — having a friend.

Her blissful bubble is then broken when, in 1914, the government summons all able-bodied boys and men to fight in a battle that will change the course of history — and her life.

‘Broken’ is a tale of the struggles of finding belonging a world that is hostile, wrought with unfathomable grief, and unkind to those who have no place within it.
