Edwina Spinner has lived in the same house for over fifty years. She has decided to sell it. It used to be a busy, crowded family home but now Edwina lives alone and it has grown too big for her.
Knock down a few walls, add a wet room. The young estate agent who comes to value the house sees potential. 'People like a project.' But as Edwina takes him from room to room, she is transported back to her old life as a young mother.
Back to her first husband Ollie and their twins, James and Rowena. Back to lies and dark secrets and to a stepson whose name Edwina cannot even bear to speak aloud. As Edwina's story unravels she is revealed as a complex and intriguing person.
Not just the 'frail old lady' trapped in her dated house, but a woman who has lived an extraordinary life, full of love and tragedy. Why is she now so alone? What happened to Edwina's family all those years ago?
Moving - Jenny Eclair's fourth novel - reveals a writer at the height of her powers. Gripping, heart-breaking and laced with black humour, it is a novel of family secrets, shocking betrayals and most of all, of home.
