Helen Knightly has spent a lifetime trying to win the love of a mother who had none to spare. And as this electrifying novel opens, she steps over a boundary she never dreamt she would even approach. But while her act is almost unconscious, it almost seems like the fulfilment of a lifetime's buried desire.
Over the next twenty four hours, her life rushes in at her as she confronts the choices that have brought her to this crossroads.
As with Alice Sebold's previous books, Lovely Bones and Lucky, Sebold has again chosen a subject that needs delicate handling, and she does it beautifully. I was hooked from start to finish. Another brilliant book from Alice Sebold.
