Another of Magrs' earlier novels in which he immerses the reader in the lives of some fascinatingly flawed individuals in the northeast of England. This time, he sets aside the magical realist adventures of previous novels and spins a multi-generational saga of familial dysfunction. A shocking new revelation in every chapter. Brilliant, page-turning stuff.
