The powerful new novel from the critically acclaimed author of INTO THE FOREST It is the 1970s, and in a small town in Indiana, Anna, a young art student, works alone in her darkroom, mesmerised by the images emerging before her. Photography is her passion, her obsession, until one terrible miscalculation...Thousands of miles away in California, Cerise, a lonely teenager, battles with puberty. As her body betrays her, growing hair and sprouting breasts, which attract attention, she seeks comfort in the most desperate and risky of ways...Facing the same dilemma, Anna and Cerise make different choices. Choices which shape their lives forever and, many years later, bring them together. Utterly engrossing and profoundly moving, Jean Hegland's second novel is a powerful exploration of the passions which drive us - and the lengths to which we will go for love.
