If you are a fan of Maggie O’Farrell you must read this.' - Louise Minchin, TV presenter and author of Isolation Island'Rachel Joyce is a masterful storyteller.' - Sarah Winman, author of Still Life’The renowned artist - the emotionally starved children - what an inspired subject!

I couldn’t love it more.' - Harriet Evans, author of The Garden of Lost and Found‘A triumph of insight and empathy!’ - Clare Chambers, author of Small Pleasures'Joyce is a fearless explorer of emotional landscape.' – Sunday Times'If only there were more novelists like Rachel Joyce' – TelegraphThere is a heatwave across Europe.Goose and his three sisters gather at the family's house by Lake Orta in Piedmont, Italy. Their father, a famous artist, has recently remarried a much younger woman and decamped to Italy to finish his masterpiece. Now he is dead and there is no sign of a painting.Although the siblings have always been close, as they search for answers over that summer, the things they learn - about themselves, their father and their new stepmother - will drive them apart before they can come to any kind of understanding of what their father's legacy truly is.Extraordinarily compelling, at heart this is a novel about sibling relationships and those hairline cracks that can appear within a family: what what happens when they splinter, and what it would take to mend them.
