You know the ones: they suddenly disappear from social media and then a global pandemic happens.
Wouldn’t you like to know what was really going on?
Meet Fran and Heather who have been best friends since childhood.
Fran is a working mum – with three kids who may survive till adulthood – and in her spare time volunteers in the local community.
Heather is a single woman, an “aunty” to Fran’s kids, and “too book obsessed” for Fran’s liking: in other words, she needs to get a life.
Scotland, 2019. Fran’s husband appears on Heather’s doorstep choking on a secret.
Fran and Heather haven’t talked for a year and Hector begins to shed a light on why. It is only by going back to the beginning of their friendship that they will understand what life events drove a wedge between them, and whether faith and friendship is possible to repair.
Two women. Multiple secrets. The question is: how to forgive your best friend with a heart full of thistles?
Full of deep characterization and vivid imagery, this is perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult and Margaret Atwood. Second prize winner for the Just Imagine short story competition, Scotland, with A Traveller’s Daughter. Scottish author featured on BBC Radio 4, with How the Herring Became a Kipper.
