Solace in Winter

A wonderful book, written with a clear-eyed compassion and a fine eye for detail. A masterpiece of insight into what it means to be fully flawed and perfectly human.

A Town Called Solace

Poised, elegant prose, paired with quiet drama that will break your heart. The sort of book that seems as if it has always existed because of its timeless perfection. Graham Norton

Road Ends

Reading Road Ends was like getting the favourite book I wanted for Christmas; my only regret was when I finished it and had to leave Megan, Tom, and the rest of the residents of Struan. Toronto Star

The Other Side of the Bridge

An enthralling read, both straightforward and wonderfully intricate. The Guardian

Crow Lake

The kind of book that keeps you reading well past midnight; you grieve when it’s over. Then you start pressing it on friends. The Washington Post
