All families have secrets. Some are more damaging than others. Moira Forsyth's novels explore the tensions and dramas of parents and children, brothers and sisters, love and marriage. With a strong sense of place, in houses and landscapes that influence, nourish or keep captive the people within them, she charts the power of those who are absent to disrupt the lives of those who stayed behind.
