Inhaltsangabe

Everybody, from time to time, will experience an annus horribilis, but this is the year that none of the family is going to forget in a hurry. Susan is locked in a custody struggle with her soon-to-be-ex husband Tom, who is perfectly prepared to play dirty if he has to. Because of her husband's sudden celebrity Debbie is faced with lifestyle changes for which she is unprepared. Oliver and Chel are on a terminal downward slide due to a pact that Oliver had thought he made with his wife years ago, and Dot's complacent life is disintegrating before her eyes. Only Jerry's path seems edged with primroses. Susan needs to find the courage to defend her children conclusively. Debbie must accept that two people make a marriage, and both have a right to a say as to what happens within it. Oliver will need to look beyond himself and his wrecked ambitions if he wishes to save his marriage. Dot seems to have blundered down a blind alley and must find her way out. Finally, answers must come from within, and finding definitive answers has never been a Nankervis talent. But family life has never been quite like this before either, so can any of them, even if not all of them, weather the threatening storms simply by behaving like a proper family?

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Jane Hatton was a child during World War II, and grew up in the unpermissive fifties, when career options for women were largely confined to Secretary, Nurse, Teacher, Physiotherapist. She opted for the first, thinking the skills required would be useful in her preferred career as a writer, but has also worked in hotels, as a sailing instructor, in a craft workshop and as a cookery demonstrator - a remarkably unstructured career - while continuing to write whenever there was a spare moment: sometimes there were not many! She has had two children's books published in the mainstream (a while ago now), followed by three novels in the genre of "literary fiction", plus The One Too Awful to Mention - which we don't mention - and has also independently published a long series about the Nankervis family and their friends and relations, all set in various areas of the West Country. Apart from writing, her interests include sailing, painting - including at one time scenery for the local pantomime - archaeology, photography and cooking. She lives in Cornwall, on her own these days, with a small black cat for company and a background of family and friends.
