- Book Synopsis
-
Ideal for readers who:

Liz Nugent builds this around one of the most unusual protagonists in recent Irish crime fiction, balancing dark humour, trauma and suspense with real control. It is the kind of psychological thriller that is both deeply unsettling and very easy to hand-sell.
Sally Diamond cannot understand why what she did was so strange. She was only doing what her father told her to do: put him out with the rubbish when he died. But that act pulls her into public view and towards a past she does not fully remember.
As Sally begins to uncover the truth about her childhood, she also steps into the world for the first time, making new connections while sensing danger closing in. Dark, original and psychologically acute, this is a thriller that lingers.
