Description

It's been fourteen years since Jinx's mother was brutally stabbed to death in their home in East London. Then, out of nowhere, Lemon arrives on her doorstep. An old friend of her mother's, he wants to revisit the events leading to that terrible night. Over the course of one weekend they strip away the layers of the past to lay bare a story full of jealousy and tragic betrayal.

Professional reviews

"Longlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2011 'This deeply moving, wonderfully written first novel - long listed for the Man Booker Prize - is a study of grief and remorse, but also a tense psychological thriller with shades of early Ruth Rendell ... The backdrop of East London in the 1970s is beautifully rendered.' SUNDAY TIMES ‘A gut-wrenching and gorgeously lyrical debut... Engrossing and human to the core, Edwards's novel wrings the heart in the most tender of ways.’ PUBLISHERS WEEKLY"
