Synopsis

'Poised and pitch-perfect throughout' Mail on Sunday

Set in Cornwall, the bestselling novel of artistic compulsion, marriage, and the secrets left behind.

'This book is complete perfection' Stephen Fry

Celebrated artist Rachel Kelly dies alone in her Penzance studio, after decades of struggling with the creative highs and devastating lows that have coloured her life. Her family gathers, each of them searching for answers. They reflect on lives shaped by the enigmatic Rachel - as artist, wife and mother - and on the ambiguous legacies she leaves them, of talent, torment and transcendent love.

'An uplifting, immensely empathetic novel'Guardian
