Description

A woman lies unconscious on the carpet of her apartment, one shoe fallen off. Her younger sister is found half-hidden under a drinks cabinet, clutching an empty bottle. This is the story of three sisters, Millie, Di and Cleo, who are struggling to build their lives in a world still reeling from war. Growing up, the sisters were shaped by their mother's complicated relationship with them. As they navigate their own paths, each sister faces extreme challenges that lead to extreme behaviour. A tragic event forces Cleo, the youngest, to become a catalyst for change. The story shifts between the three sisters, exploring human nature in all its complexity. With elements of a psychological thriller, Rachel Billington observes her characters with clinical detachment and wit. Yet, there is hope at the heart of this story, leaving readers wondering long after the final twist is revealed.
