## Description

''It was dark and sad and powerful and poetic. Just addictive, and bloody marvellous'' Louise BeechThe Leftovers is a story about sexual power and consent, the myth of the perfect victim, and a dark exploration of the things we do for – and to – the ones we love. Callie’s life is spent caring for others – for Frey, her client, and for Noah, her brother. When a tragic car accident shatters her family, she’s left alone with her mother Vanessa. Vanessa''s favourite child was Noah; Callie''s favourite parent was her dad. Now they''re stuck with each other - the leftovers of their family - and they''ll have to confront the ways they''ve been hurt, and the ways they''ve passed that hurt on to others. Praise for Cassandra:''A thoughtful novel. Parkin creates authentic, interesting characters'' Carys Bray''Fresh and original, written vividly and with lair. I was completely engrossed!'' Katherine Webb''A dark, eloquently creepy tale. Parkin''s prose quivers with visceral terror'' Carol Lovekin
