E lie is perfectly happy, living a quiet life with her husband, Clive.
We l, she does sometimes wonder abou the way he talks to her,
and about a l the things she hasn’t yet achieved. But she’s happy
enough. Dan is definitely content. He has a predictable, ordered
existence, making harps in his isolated barn on Exmoor, and he’s
more than happy being on his own, far away from other people
and, crucia ly, far away from any risk of surprises. Then a chance
meeting changes everything. E lie and the Harp Maker is an
enchanting, endearing story . perfect for a lazy afternoon read.
R195. • When Katie Straw’s body is pu led from the waters of the
local suicide spot, the police decide it’s an open-and-shut case.
A standard-issue female suicide. But the residents of Widringham
women’s refuge, where Katie worked, don’t agree. They say it’s
murder. Jessica Moor’s Keeper is a feminis thri ler that asks what
justice looks like in a system blinkered by prejudice, a literary
page-turner about a crime as shocking as it is commonplace.
R290 • One son lied. One son died. Alice’s son is dead. Indigo’s
son is accused of murder. But Indigo is determined to prove her
beloved Kane is innocent. Searching for evidence, she’s helped
by a kind stranger who takes an interest in her situation. Little
does she know that her new friend, Alice, has her own agenda.
Alice obviously can’ te l Indigo who she rea ly is, but she wants to
understand why her son was ki led, and she needs to make sure
that Indigo’s efforts to free Kane don’t put he remaining family at
risk. But how long wi l i take for Indigo to discover her identity? And what other secrets will
l
come out as she digs deeper? No one knows a son like his mother. But neither Alice nor
Indigo know the whole truth about their boys, and what happened between them on that
fateful night. Emily Koch’s Keep Him Close is a great psychological thri ler about love, hate
and forgiveness. R290. • Micah Mortimer isn’ the most polished person you’ l ever meet.
He measures out his days running errands for work, maintaining an impeccable cleaning
regime and going fo runs (7.15, every morning). He’s content with the steady balance of
his life. Bu then the order of things starts to tilt. His woman friend Cassia (he refuses to call
l
anyone in her late thirties a ‘girlfriend’) tells ls him she’s facing eviction because of a cat. Then
a teenager shows up at Micah’s door claiming to be his son, a surprise Micah seems poorly
equipped to handle. Redhead by the Side of the Road is an intimate look into the heart
and mind of a man who sometimes finds those around him just out of reach – and a love
story about the differences that make us a l unique. R290.
