  • "By the acclaimed author of Brass, this is an unforgettable portrait of the world in which we live, as it follows a mixed race couple who face all kinds of prejudices. For fans of Zadie Smith, Andrea Levy, Roddy Doyle and Harif Kureishi, Walsh has created a young, doomed family that stays in the reader's heart long after the final page."
  • "A young man with shock-red hair tears through the snowbound streets of Warrington's toughest housing estate. He is Robbie Fitzgerald, and he is running for his life - and that of his young family. In his heart, Robbie knows the odds are stacked against them. In this unbending northern town, he has married the beautiful brown nurse who once stitched up his wounds. Susheela is his Tamil princess, but in the real world the Fitzgeralds have to face up to prejudice, poverty and naked hatred from their neighbours. Now Robbie has seen a way out, and he's sprinting to his date with destiny ..." "This night starts a chain of events that will reverberate throughout this family - Robbie, Susheela, their son Vincent and unborn daughter, Ellie." "Across two decades of struggle, aspiration, achievement, misunderstandings, near-misses and shattered dreams, Helen Walsh plunges us into their lives and loves ... --Jacket."
