  The new contemporary novel of life, love and how to survive it, from the acclaimed author of Quality Time and Living It Up, Living It Down. Faye Reading has given second place to her career as a lighting designer in order to be a good wife and mother -- to her husband, Nick, their adopted son Samuel and their daughter Isabel. If her lifestyle has been on the reckless side, Nick's conscience, sense and good nature have always compensated, giving her the security she has craved since childhood. At least until now. For a message on the answerphone, a visit to the doctor and the return of Samuel's natural mother -- Nick's wayward young sister -- are about to upset the balance of their lives, casting shadows where there was light, and doubt where there was certainty. As they each confront their own personal demons, Faye and Nick must find a way forward, but first they must learn where to look...Theirs is a story of courage, tenderness, fear and faith, which Norma Curtis deftly recounts with her unique blend of dry humour, warmth, wisdom and originality.
