Helen's family is falling apart. There are no answers from her husband. She can't communicate with her daughter. So she turns to other relatives: the ones who are dead and gone. Soon she finds herself floundering in a new world of friends, secrets, enemies and family history enthusiasts.
The Colour of Grass by Nia Williams is a story about families, past and present, and life's unexpected connections.
