## Description

Are the parents always to blame? Rachel Jensen has it all: a husband she adores, fulfilling work in art restoration, a terrific teenage daughter and finally a new baby on the way. So when she worries about mysterious changes in her daughter Kate's behaviour, friends reassure her it's just normal teen angst. But then a terrifying accident involving Kate and her infant brother sets off a series of events that threaten to destroy everything Rachel has worked so hard to build. From the beloved author of SIGNAL FIRES and BLACK & WHITE , FAMILY HISTORY is a visceral, ferociously paced novel about one mothers nightmarish realisation that she cannot protect her own child. ‘Riveting’ Harper's Bazaar ‘Graceful’ Glamour ‘A poised, absorbing book’ New York Times Book Review
