**THE TIMES, SUNDAY TIMES AND GUARDIAN BOOK OF 2023** A dead child
on a London estate and the finger of suspicion pointing at one
reclusive Irish family: the Greens. . . 'As much of a compulsive
read as the first' THE TIMES 'One masterful novel... Nolan has
excelled herself' TELEGRAPH It's 1990 in London and Tom Hargreaves
has it all: a burgeoning career as a reporter, fierce ambition and
a brisk disregard for the 'peasants' - ordinary people, his
readers, easy tabloid fodder. His star looks set to rise when he
stumbles across a scoop: a dead child on a London estate, grieving
parents loved across the neighbourhood, and the finger of suspicion
pointing at one reclusive family of Irish immigrants and 'bad
apples': the Greens. At their heart sits Carmel: beautiful,
other-worldly, broken, and once destined for a future beyond her
circumstances until life - and love - got in her way. Crushed by
failure and surrounded by disappointment, there's nowhere for her
to go and no chance of escape. Now, with the police closing in on a
suspect and the tabloids hunting their monster, she must confront
the secrets and silences that have trapped her family for so many
generations. 'Heartbreaking, society-examining stuff' VOGUE
