June folds socks. She comments on Dallas she shops in the supermarket. She sits in the pub. Frank sees her, but he doesn't know why; nobody else does. Set in Airdrie, Scotland in the 1980s, Frank is a touching, bittersweet and gently humorous novel that explores how a father and daughter cope in grief. For Frank, holding on for longer is the least painful way to let go. For Jackie, it means losing herself in the music of the decade and seeking out a family of her own. But who is holding onto whom?
