If you've ever found yourself waiting for a call that didn't come, The Man Who Didn't Call by Rosie Walsh is the book for you.
Imagine you meet a man, spend six glorious days together, and fall in love. And it's mutual: you've never been so certain of anything. So when he leaves for a long-booked holiday and promises to call from the airport, you have no cause to doubt him. But he doesn't call.
Your friends tell you to forget him, but you know they're wrong: something must have happened; there must be a reason for his silence. What do you do when you finally discover you're right?
That there is a reason -- and that reason is the one thing you didn't share with each other? The truth.
