Book Lovers' Happy Hour Three cocktails matched to your taste, three books chosen for you, an hour and a half at the bar. £60 per person. Book a place →
A tense, gripping novel about a mother whose child begins to change in ways she can't explain, for fans of Delicate Condition and Nightbitch. Nora Pacetti is a new stay-at-home mother, tired but coping while caring for her happy, healthy baby Olivia. But then one morning, something that looks like a feather starts growing out of Olivia's arm. Or at least, that's what Nora's mother, Giulia, thinks. Nora thinks her mother has probably spent too much time watching conspiracy videos on YouTube. Nora's husband thinks Olivia needs tests, specialists, hospitals. But Nora senses that whatever is happening to her daughter needs to be concealed-and a mother's intuition is never wrong. Soon sinister people begin asking questions about Olivia, and Nora starts to wonder if there really is something wrong with her baby. But she's determined to discover the truth about her daughter...no matter the cost.
