'When I was eighteen, my father fell off a cliff. It was a stupid way to die . . .'

John Venton tumbles into the sea and his loss rips his fragile family apart. Teenagers Corwin and Morwenna run far from their home on the coast. Their mother, freed from the burden of an unhappy marriage, enthusiastically embarks on a new relationship, much to her daughter's horror. While grandfather Matthew shuts himself in the broken and crumbling family home, obsessively painting a map which tells the history of the house and its occupants. But this map holds a secret - a dark family secret that slowly draws those in its grip back to the house at the edge of the world . . .

'Darkly funny. . . sharp-as-knives observations brilliantly capture the black undertow of this family story.' Sunday Express

'An obviously gifted writer . . . The House At the Edge of the World grips.' Diana Athill, Guardian

'Thoroughly convincing, superbly written, funny.' Sunday Times

'Intricate, involving, vivid.' Daily Mail
