The Colours We See Kaisa Winter

"Winter's debut novel is a beautiful modern tragic love story."

"An intense story that is hauntingly relevant, and will undoubtedly resonate with many of its readers."

A lost girl. A troubled musician. The road trip of a lifetime.

Hazel lands in America with nothing but a backpack, a craving for adventure, and a past she would rather forget. She is eager to live life as she always imagined it - free, wild, unpredictable.

When brilliant but aloof singer-songwriter Liam invites her to join his band as they tour all over the States, she doesn't have to think twice. Suddenly she's travelling, performing, and falling hard for this talented, complicated boy. But when things begin to spiral out of control, Hazel realises that no matter how hard she tries, she can't outrun herself.

THE COLOURS WE SEE is an under-the-skin love story brimming with music, art, parties and heartbreak. How far can we go to escape ourselves before it's too late to turn back?
