Reviews
A gripping, beautifully written book from the author of the highly acclaimed Other People's Secrets. A compelling observation of parenthood, life and love
Candlish has crafted a tender, heartfelt story . . . An insightful and driving novel
You'll be hooked
I loved this book. It reminded me of Joanna Trollope at her best -- full of complicated yet sympathetic characters and riven with the kind of dilemmas that characterise real lives. I honestly didn't see the twist coming. Perfect.
One of the most turbulent yet gripping books I have had the pleasure of reading. A wonderfully written story about parenthood and just how far you would go for the one you love, this book oozes tension from very first page
A terrific tension and sense of unease runs through the pages . . . A clever take on love, loss and deceit and a good summer read
A master of her craft
Thought-provoking and compelling - highly recommended to anyone who enjoys contemporary women's fiction
