Wish You Were Here (Paperback)

Time Out Novel of the Year 'Astonishingly moving' Sunday Express On an autumn day in 2006, on the Isle of Wight, Jack Luxton -- former Devon farmer, now proprietor of a seaside caravan park -- receives the news that his brother Tom, not seen for years, has been killed in Iraq. For Jack and his wife Ellie this will have a potentially catastrophic impact and compel Jack to make a crucial journey: to receive his brother's remains, but also to return to the land of his past and confront his most secret, troubling memories. Building to a fiercely suspenseful climax, Wish You Were Here is a hauntingly compassionate story that allows us to feel the stuff of headlines as heart-wrenching personal truth. 'Profound and powerful ...an unputdownable read' Scotland on Sunday 'A wonderful writer' Daily Telegraph
