'Taut, beautiful and savage' Guardian A man travels to his son's
school to deal with the fallout of a violent attack and to make
sure his son will not lose his college place. But what exactly has
his son done? And who is to blame? A young woman trying to make it
in LA, working in a clothes shop while taking acting classes, turns
to a riskier way of making money but will be forced to confront the
danger of the game she's playing. And a family coming together for
Christmas struggle to skate over the lingering darkness caused by
the very ordinary brutality of a troubled husband and father.
Subtle, sophisticated and displaying an extraordinary understanding
of human behaviour, these stories from the best-selling author of
The Girls are unforgettable. ______________________ PRAISE FOR
