Fifty years on, disclosure means disaster. Num Pages: 328 pages. BIC Classification: FA. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 198 x 129. .
One handstand. That's all it took. And Lucy Pitcher spun William Shearwater's world upside down. Fifty years on, 'Shears' is a squeaky-clean Anglican chaplain, nursing memories of a lost and secret love. He has never met English teacher Sophie Daggert, recently bereaved and on a quest to trace her natural parents. But through a mesmerizing series of twists and turns, Sophie and Shears are brought together in a shocking journey of self-discovery - with 1967's Summer of Love at the heart of it all.

Reviews for Whatever Happened to Billy Shears?
'Witty, tragic and emotional. If there's a better-observed comic novel about the 1960s, I'll eat my kaftan.';Cindy Kent MBE, (ex-The Settlers);'Goddard's knowledge of popular culture is extraordinary, and the way he weaves it into a believable range of characters makes this book utterly compelling. A splendid read is guaranteed for all.';Don Maclean, former presenter of BBC TV's Crackerjack!
