Driving to the seaside together are a young girl on the verge of
womanhood, her mother and her stepfather with his son. But this is
no ordinary trip. There's something sinister about Evan Charlton,
and all too soon the girl is plunged into a nightmare world that
she cannot understand. This debut collection of short stories by
the award-winning writer and journalist Nigel Jarrett brings
together places of violence, longing, helplessness and vivid
remembrance, where characters must cope with the darker side of
human relationships, often inside the seemingly cosy world of the
family. From the Rhys Davies Prize-Winning story about a married
Japanese woman risking a scandalous love-affair to a hotel in 1940s
post-war Switzerland, Nigel's stories explore romance with tragedy,
family with madness and the lives of people with a warm and tender
humour.
