' MONIQUE ROFFEY In the heart-aching new novel from the author of the award-winning Golden Child, a mother searches for the daughter she left behind a lifetime ago.
When Dawn Bishop was sixteen, she left her home in Trinidad and journeyed across the sea to Venezuela.
There, she gave birth to a baby girl and returned to Trinidad alone.
Dawn tried to carry on with her life: a move to England, a marriage, two sons and a divorce.
But she never stopped thinking of her daughter and of what might have been.
Forty years later, a woman gets in touch on an internet forum, claiming that she might be her long-lost daughter.
Dawn dares to hope that this may be a way back to her past.
Could she finally give form to all the love and care a mother has left to offer? 'Reads like a Claire Keegan short story expanded by Elizabeth Strout.
' THE TIMES 'From the very first page, I knew I was in the hands of a master storyteller.
An utterly arresting tale of love and grief, of the wounding and healing powers of family, of the many guises of a mother's love.
It's an absolute triumph.
' SARA COLLINS 'Exquisitely written.
A compelling and tender story of what - and who - is hidden in almost every family that feels as old as the hills and yet acutely contemporary.
' MONIQUE ROFFEY 'An arresting voice that made me think of silk: its delicate beauty belies its intrinsic strength.
' CLAIRE KILROY 'A compelling read taking us to the heart of difficult family situations and evocative secret places.
' ROMESH GUNESEKERA
