SHORTLISTED FOR THE PORTICO PRIZE 2022 'Unnerving, absorbing . . .
Laurie is a miraculous creation . . . Piercingly human and darkly
funny' Sunday Times One ordinary morning, Laurie's husband
disappears, leaving behind his phone and wallet. For weeks she
tells no one, carrying on her cleaning job at the university,
visiting her tricky, dementia-suffering father and holing up in her
high-rise flat with a bottle to hand. When she finally reports him
as missing, the police are suspicious. What took her so long?
Laurie can't fully explain her behaviour even to herself, or the
strange presence she senses in the flat. Only when she looks back
on the ensuing wreckage does she begin to understand, and see how
she might repair the damage.
