About this listen

 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.

Really enjoyable book. Interesting story which was funny, sad and touched on real life issues in a sensitive and informed way. The story kept you enthralled to the end. Great narration by Graham Norton who brings the characters to life.

Another wonderful book from Mr Norton

I've loved all Graham's previous books but didn't like this one as much. The plot was quite far fetched and it just wasn't a very satisfactory listen all in all though not so as to give up on it or anything, just not up to his usual standard, an ok book.

Not as good as previous books

I wonder who Graham based Moira’s character on - an old auntie perhaps? She hilarious. The book is an absolute joy to read.

Hilarious black comedy
