![]() Jane Caro: 'The idea for this novel came to me fully formed. But she will do anything for the people she loves most in the world. As the situation escalates and the law proves incapable of protecting them, Miriam is faced with an unthinkable decision. She was thrilled when her younger daughter, Ally, married her true love, but as time goes by Miriam watches in disbelief and growing fear as Ally's perfect husband starts controlling her and their children, and cutting them off from the rest of the world. Miriam Duffy is a respectable North Shore widow, real estate agent and devoted mother and grandmother. In response to escalating and almost daily media reports of incidents of horrifying family violence, feminist icon and fearless commentator Jane Caro has written a stunning novel that asks what any of us might do when faced with a threat to the people we hold most dear. Just like the garden, the fuse box, the bills, bin night and blown light bulbs, this was just something else she'd now have to take care of herself. From the Walkley Award winning journalist, social commentator and author comes a gripping domestic thriller with a moral dilemma at its core. ![]()
