The Tooth Fairy

Paperback (Orion Pub Co April 15, 2002) , New Ed edition
‘A deft canny novel about growing up, cunningly disguised as a highly readable fairy story: a modern parable of loss and maturity’ Iain M. Banks

A story about a boy growing up in England in the 1960s - with one singular difference: He's haunted by a demonic Tooth Fairy that only he can see, but whose malignant influence spills over onto his family and friends. When seven-year-old Sam Southall, loses a tooth, he's visited that night by a sinister, rank-smelling, foul-mouthed, mercurial Tooth Fairy. Slowly, The Tooth Fairy teaches Sam to make mischief at school, then insists that Sam have his friend Terry sleep over. That same night, Terry's father shoots his wife, his other children, and himself . . .
