The Instant Irish Bestseller

How do you survive the unsurvivable?

Rachel lives with her husband Tom and their two children: it's the ordinary family life she always thought she'd have. All of that changes in an instant - when Tom runs the family car off the road, seeking to end his own life, and take his wife and children with him.

Suddenly Rachel is left poring over the wreckage to try and understand what happened - to find a way to go on living afterwards.

'Outstanding, and has lingered in my head for a very long time'

'A searingly beautiful novel'
