Paperback. When Catherine moves several hundred miles away from her sister, Helen says, 'Phone calls aren't enough', but they make it easier to edit the truth. Helen can dismiss Gilbert and his enchanted Factory as 'weird' when she's never met him, and Catherine think Helen foolish for loving the unreliable and dangerous Joe. Neither sees the perils concealed in what they have not told each other, or guesses at the sinister connection between their separate lives. This book is a novel about love and marriage, but even more about hatred and the damage people do to each other in the most ordinary of families. Num Pages: 320 pages. BIC Classification: FA. .
