Summary

Relieved to take time out from her faltering marriage, Julia Lambett heads across the country to her hometown to help her father move into aged care.

But moving an elderly man is easier said than done, especially when her father reveals that a guest has come to stay.

Soon after her return, Julia bumps into her childhood friend. True to form, Davina takes a determined interest in all the things that Julia hoped she had left behind.

Along with four decades of possessions that must be managed and dispensed with, Julia finds herself uncovering some long-forgotten, deeply unsettling memories.

Critic reviews

"Evocative, unsettling, and warmly told, a breathtaking portrayal of the intimacies of an ordinary family from a thrilling storyteller." (Brooke Davis, award-winning author of Lost & Found)

"A superlative novel – delicate, fragile and deeply reflective, with prose that can shatter and fine edges that cut deep." (Catherine Noske, author of The Salt Madonna)
