HOW DID THE GOOD LIFE GO SO WRONG?
Amy Connell and Lan Honey are having the best childhood. When their families make the leap from city living to a farm in the West Country they have untold freedom. The adults are far too busy to keep an eye on them, and Amy and Lan would never tell them about climbing on the high barn roof, or what happened with the axe that time, any more than their parents would tell them the things they get up to. Adult things, like betrayal, that threaten to bring the whole fragile idyll tumbling down...
'Funny and moving' Elizabeth Day
'A fabulous thing: vivid and funny, sometimes heart-rendingly sad' Guardian
'I couldn't put it down' Esther Freud
