The stunning sequel to the raw and compelling Carnegie-nominated contemporary YA novel about found family, The Boy Who Steals Houses, from the New York Times bestselling author of Don't Let the Forest In.

He's a boy made of glass and sharp corners, and he doesn't know how to be soft in a house full of sunlight.

Avery has given up stealing houses. Now, he's meant to build them. Forced to stay with the De Lainey family while his brother Sam is in juvie, Avery feels like he's drowning in their cosy, chaotic home. He hates that Sam chose them over running away with him, and he hates working in their construction company while Vin, the thief who hurt Sam, still walks free.

Hell-bent on revenge, Avery is determined to sabotage his time with the De Laineys to get locked up with his brother. He just needs to stay immune to the frustratingly charming Jeremy . . .

But when trouble comes to the door of the butter-yellow house, Avery realises he can't survive this fight alone.
