The new novel from bestselling author Graham Norton

In his tense and darkly comic new novel Norton casts a light on the relationship between mothers and daughters, and truth and self-preservation with unnerving effect.

Carol is a divorced teacher living in a small town in Ireland, her only son now grown. A second chance at love brings her unexpected connection and belonging. The new relationship sparks local speculation: what does a woman like her see in a man like that? What happened to his wife who abandoned them all those years ago? But the gossip only serves to bring the couple closer.

When Declan becomes ill, things start to fall apart. His children are untrusting and cruel, and Carol is forced to leave their beloved home with its worn oak floors and elegant features and move back in with her parents.

Carol's mother is determined to get to the bottom of things, she won't see her daughter suffer in this way. It seems there are secrets in Declan's past, strange rumours that were never confronted and suddenly the house they shared takes on a more sinister significance.

In his tense and darkly comic new novel Norton casts a light on the relationship between mothers and daughters, and truth and self-preservation with unnerving effect.

For some reason my headphones died 10 min before the end of the audiobook. It seems they couldn't handle how good this was! The story is full of dark twists and gentle humour so that you never know what turn it will take plot wise. This is my first Graham Norton novel, and I'm very impressed. I didn't know what to expect and let's say he barely left crumbs! Not sure if it's a recurring pattern in his stories but here I find he has a knack for writing about interesting women, and the way he crafts human relationships is spot on. Also, he is an excellent narrator. How much more talented can this amazing chat show host be? I guess I'll have to read more of his novels to find out.

Excellent storytelling and narration
