Publisher Description

From the Number One bestselling author of BEHIND HER EYES comes a beautiful, harrowing, heartbreaking story, filled with exquisite truths.

'A beautiful story, honestly told' Neil Gaiman

Tonight is a special terrible night.

A woman sits at her father's bedside, watching the clock tick away the last hours of his life. Her brothers and sisters - all broken, their bonds fragile - have been there for the past week, but now she is alone.

And that's when it always comes.

The clock ticks, the darkness beckons.

If it comes at all.

3.5
“A novella about the importance of family, as the narrator waits by her father's death bed and relates some of the events of their lives together. It sounds heavy, but it's full of joy and beautifully written - great if you're looking for an impactful short read.”
