Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Longlisted for the Booker Prize
A powerful, heart-breaking story about tempting fate and living with the consequences.
Arthur and Jake are brothers yet worlds apart.
Arthur is older, shy, dutiful and set to inherit his father's farm. Jake is younger, handsome and reckless, a dangerous man to know.
When Laura arrives in their rural community, the fragile balance of the brothers' rivalry is pushed to the edge of catastrophe...
Critic reviews

"Evokes beautifully the big joys and sorrows of most people, no matter how small their town." (The Times)

Beautiful
A town called Solace was always going to be a hard act to follow but this is just as good. Slow start but builds throughout - very addictive. Sad to have finished it.

captivating story
I was absolutely absorbed by the story and the telling of it. Excellently read this is a story with such emotional detail, descriptions of the lives of different generations, of tragic events and joy. I found myself sad when I realised there were only three hours left.
