After a heartbreaking divorce, Kerris Wells moves to a small northern Canadian town to renovate an old house she has inherited. She’s never felt so alone as she takes her first uncertain steps into her new reality. She isn’t just rebuilding a house. She's rebuilding her life, which will demand courage and hope—things she thought she had lost long ago. Little by little, Kerris discovers she is being guided into the path followed by her beloved grandmother who was Kerris's oasis during her difficult childhood. That path helps her understand her past and the decisions that tore her family apart. But is it enough to help her move beyond the pain others have caused her? The opportunity is all around Kerris to redefine family and find peace—if she can only let go of anger and sorrow to make room for new friendships, a caring family, and a new love.

From the bestselling author of Isaac and the Egg... 'I devoured this... my very favourite reading topic: dysfunctional families and the many ways in which they can both fracture and heal' Jennie Godfrey 'One to turn to if you want to laugh and cry on alternating pages' Lottie Hazell --- There is a fox, roaming in the early hours, watching, waiting on the edge of things. He sees a family thrown together for the first time in years. A man with wild hair, growing older and confused; his son, lost and unconnected; a daughter denied her dreams; and a wife and mother about to leave them all. He sees the moments - big and small - that have divided them. The nighttime disappearances, the angry footsteps on the stairs, the silence at the dinner table. But why has the fox followed them here? And can they find their way back to each other, before it's too late? ***READER REVIEWS*** 'Such a beautiful, emotional read' 'I was swept away in the story and yes I may have shed a tear or two' 'Bobby Palmer takes every raw human emotion that we aren't always good at voicing, and manages to describe them 100% correctly... he voices the words in your heart' 'Like nothing I've experienced before and I can't get enough' 'I promise you, this is novel that will stay with you a long time' PRAISE FOR ISAAC AND THE EGG 'A tender story of love, grief and the transformative power of friendship' Guardian 'Truly one of the most beautiful stories you will ever read' Joanna Cannon 'Will linger longer after the final page' Independent 'Unique, tender and funny' Pandora Sykes 'A future classic' Clare Mackintosh 'Like nothing I've ever read before' Stylist 'An arresting debut novel about grief in the most wonderfully oblique way' Reverend Richard Coles 'Just magic' Kate Sawyer

In this highly atmospheric thriller from the Bram Stoker Award–nominated author of The Violence, a young woman hopes to reinvent herself at an isolated artists’ colony . . . only to be drawn into its dark, twisted past. Sarah Carpenter is starting over. She’s on the run—leaving behind her unsupportive, narcissistic ex-boyfriend and alcoholic, abusive mother—and headed for a new beginning at Tranquil Falls, a secluded artists’ colony on the grounds of a closed hotel. There, with no cell signal or internet to distract her, she hopes to rediscover her love for pottery and put the broken pieces of her life back together. But when Sarah uncovers the body of a young woman while digging a hole for a pit kiln, things start to fall apart. Her fellow artists begin to act in troubling ways. The eccentric fiber artist knits an endless scarf. The musician plays the same carousel song over and over until his fingers bleed. The calligrapher grins with ink-stained teeth. Not to mention the haunting dreams Sarah has night after night. When she discovers glass shards in her clay, Sarah wonders if someone is out to get her—or if she’s losing her grip on reality out here in the wilds, where the pounding of the waterfall never, ever fades. As she investigates the beautiful valley and the crumbling resort looming over them all, she unearths a chilling past that refuses to remain buried . . .

“A vivid portrait of second-generation immigrants . . . Sawhney is pitch-perfect when describing the uneasy relationship between adolescents and their parents.” —The Times Literary Supplement Siddharth Arora lives an ordinary life in the New England suburb of South Haven, but his childhood comes to a grinding halt when his mother dies in a car accident. Siddharth soon gravitates toward a group of adolescent bullies, drinking, and smoking instead of drawing and swimming. He takes great pains to care for his depressive father, Mohan Lal, an immigrant who finds solace in the hateful Hindu fundamentalism of his homeland and cheers on Indian fanatics who murder innocent Muslims. When a new woman enters their lives, Siddharth and his father have a chance at a fresh start. They form a new family, hoping to leave their pain behind them. South Haven is no simple coming-of-age tale or hero’s journey, blurring the line between victim and victimizer and asking readers to contend with the lies we tell ourselves as we grieve and survive. Following in the tradition of narratives by Edwidge Danticat and Junot Díaz, Sawhney draws upon the measured lyricism of postcolonial writers like Michael Ondaatje but brings to his subjects distinctly American irreverence and humor. “An affecting tale of a family’s loss, a child’s grief, and the search for solace in all the wrong places. Hirsh Sawhney is an incandescent voice in fiction.” —Laila Lalami, Pulitzer Prize finalist “This luminous debut . . . captures precisely the heartache of growing up.” —Library Journal “A raw portrait of a motherless family . . . poetic.” —The Village Voice
