About this book

"Joe Fortune, a Jewish GP, has been married to Anna for twenty years; they enjoy a passionate and happy relationship. But there are dark secrets in their lives. Joe has long nurtured a desire to murder Gordon, Anna's father: a motive born of past events and involving revenge, mutual hatred, and Gordon's deep prejudice against Joe's faith. Anna too is hiding deep, painful secrets. The reader is led back and forth over the last half century to discover love, lies, passion, religion, cruelty and violence. And while Joe is angry and resentful, Anna's quiet dignity discloses her own shocking revelation." -- BOOK JACKET

About Unknown Author

Mary Cavanagh spent her childhood in North Oxford, and was a pupil at St Barnabas Junior School in Jericho. She worked various jobs during the "Swinging Sixties." She married Bill and had two sons. They’re still happily married and live in Kennington with their Wire-Haired Dachshund, Angus. Cavanagh was 35 when she became a student at Westminster Teacher Training College, and it was through her English course that she discovered the joy of creative writing. Her work is inspired by the profound social and moral changes that have taken place in her life, and her acute observations of humankind (most especially as a voyeur and ardent ‘earwigger’). Cavanagh is a member of the Oxford Writers Group, Writers in Oxford and Abingdon Writers. Source: [Author's website](http://www.marycavanagh.co.uk/about-mary/)
