Adolygiad y Cyhoeddwr / Publisher Review

An intriguing examination of the enduring legacy of civil conflict, an unusual combination of love story and psychological thriller. Jay, an itinerant storyteller, has been roaming rootless for years until one morning he arrives in a small Yorkshire Dales town and sees a face in the crowd which takes him back to the best and worst times of his life. In the aftermath of a failed affair, Marilyn is rebuilding her life and her barn when a lightning strike threatens to ruin everything. Jay comes to her rescue, but accepting his help risks the independence she’s been fighting … Should she trust that Jay is who he says he is, even when he is economical with the truth? When he disappears for a day or two running after an immigrant pickpocket he claims is the son of an old friend, Marilyn is visited by the police with a tale of murder and lies reaching back into the early nineties and the war in Yugoslavia. Should she tell them everything she knows – which isn’t much – or give Jay the benefit of the doubt. Her head says one thing, her heart another. A haunting story of guilt, love and war from a talented debut novelist
