Writing

‘Genuinely original and stylishly written. An empathetic and magical tale.’ — Paul Burke, NB Magazine

‘This tantalising, highly readable story defies neat categorisation, and is all the more enjoyable for it.’ — Rachel Farmer, Lunate

‘A fast-paced and original debut.’ — The New European

After witnessing a horrific accident from her apartment window, Doreen Durand lies low, alone and friendless, refusing to answer the door or her phone to the investigating police.

When she runs away she is picked up and protected by the mysterious and wealthy Violet Cascade, a woman who seems to know everything about her. As one rogue police officer continues to pursue Doreen, a surreal game of cat and mouse begins.
