| book description |

An exhilarating winter tale of two sisters drawn into a new life of risk, passion and possibility, from the Sunday Times bestseller. â€˜Tessa Hadley is my favourite authorâ€™ KATE ATKINSON On a winter Saturday night in post-war Bristol, sisters Moira and Evelyn, on the cusp of adulthood, go to an art studentsâ€™ party in a dockside pub; there they meet two men, Paul and Sinden, whose air of worldliness and sophistication both intrigues and repels them. Sinden calls a few days later to invite them over to the grand suburban mansion Paul shares with his brother and sister, and Moira accepts despite Evelynâ€™s misgivings. As the night unfolds in this unfamiliar, glamorous new setting, the sisters learn things about themselves and each other that shock them, and release them into a new phase of their lives. *A SUNDAY TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR* â€˜Few writers give me such consistent pleasureâ€™ ZADIE SMITH â€˜A glimmering tale of two sistersâ€™ FT â€˜Hadleyâ€™s extraordinary skill [is] making both surface life and deep interiors come fully aliveâ€™ COLM TÃ“IBÃN â€˜Hadley recruits admirers with each bookâ€™ HILARY MANTEL
