Claire, I’ve just started your book but, 7 chapters in, I’m struck by how much I identify with Rachel as a bereaved mother, with an unspeakable mental-health-related tragedy for those around her to navigate. It’s honestly spot on from my perspective, excellent writing.

Mentally ill husband plans family murder-suicide, partly succeeding. A journey through love, searing loss, and beyond. Compassionate and completely absorbing. @cmgleeson.bsky.social your Irish Book Award is richly deserved!
