Three siblings walk home one afternoon and find a badly injured boy in a field. Their decision to help saves a life, but it also sets each of them on a different, wrenching path as they move toward adulthood.
Matthew becomes consumed with finding the attacker; Zoe drifts through Oxford and encounters a striking outsider; Duncan, newly curious about his origins, seeks the mother who gave him up. All three must confront shifting loyalties, a strained parental marriage, and the moral complexities stirred by violence.
Written with spare, restrained storytelling, the novel combines close psychological observation with moral ambiguity. It will appeal to readers who favour character-driven literary fiction and quiet, exacting prose.

This seller was incredible. I purchased an inexpensive (used) book and was almost immediately notified that it shipped on the same day I ordered it. I received it within 2 days. It was exactly as described - it looked like it had never even been read! Great service & a great product. Thanks!
The book was in excellent condition and it arrived in approximately 5 days, much sooner than I had expected. I would definitely recommend this vendor.
