Publisher's Summary

Fearless, uplifting and compelling, The Invisible Crowd is a powerful debut audiobook about loyalty, kindness - and the brief moments which define our lives.

2nd March 1975

In Asmara, Eritrea, Yonas Kelati is born into a world of turmoil. At the same time, on the same day, Jude Munroe takes her first breath in London, England.

Thirty Years Later

Blacklisted in his war-ravaged country, Yonas has no option but to flee his home. After a terrible journey, he arrives on a bleak English coast.

By a twist of fate, Yonas' asylum case lands on Jude's desk. Opening the file, she finds a patchwork of witness statements from those who met Yonas along his journey: a lifetime the same length of hers, reduced to a few scraps of paper.

Soon Jude will stand up in court and tell Yonas' story. How she tells it will change his life forever.

Thought provoking

interesting story, told in a different way. I used to volunteer at a detention centre in Sydney, so a lot of this feels familiar and we'll researched.
