Description
Eva's life was forever changed by the actions of her son, Kevin, who committed a horrific act of violence at school. Two years on, she is struggling to come to terms with what happened. In a series of direct and unsettling letters, Eva tries to make sense of Kevin's actions and her own role in his life. As she seeks to understand her son's motivations, she is forced to confront her own feelings about motherhood and the sacrifices she made for him.
This thought-provoking and deeply unsettling novel explores the complexities of family relationships and the consequences of our actions. Through Eva's letters, we gain a unique insight into the inner workings of a family torn apart by tragedy.
