Now a major film from the makers of A Short Stay in Switzerland. On 7 July 2005, Julie Nicholson's life was changed forever. Her daughter, Jenny, was killed on her way to work in the London bombings, shaking Julie's beliefs. With heartbreaking honesty and integrity, Julie tells her story of love, tragedy and heartache for the first time. Jenny Nicholson was travelling to work when a bomb exploded at Edgware Road Tube station. Her mother, Reverend Julie Nicholson, was on holiday in Anglesey at the time and watched the situation unfold on the television before travelling to London to search for her missing daughter. After five terrible days, her daughter's death was confirmed. Struggling to comprehend the tragedy, Julie's sorrow and longing for her beloved daughter turned to rage and anger at the senseless death.


In what will doubtless be considered a landmark grief memoir, Julie Nicholson takes us painstakingly through each moment from when Jenny fails to answer her mobile, to anointing her body. Devastatingly honest and courageous, Julie tells of her love and loss as only a mother can. * Julie's story attracted extensive media coverage and was the subject of a BBC documentary Every Parent's Nightmare. * A phenomenal auction for the serial was won by The Mail on Sunday * Since the completion of the serial, Julie is now available for interviews and has appeared on Woman's Hour. She will now begin a large publicity campaign promoting the book.
