Until the unthinkable tore them apart
Isolte and Viola are twins. Inseparable as children, they've grown into very different adults: Isolte, a successful features writer for a fashion magazine with a photographer boyfriend and a flat in London, and Viola, desperately unhappy and struggling with a lifelong eating disorder.
What happened all those years ago to set the twins on such different paths to adulthood? As both women start to unravel the escalating tragedies of a half-remembered summer, terrifying secrets from the past come rushing back - and threaten to overwhelm their adult lives...

The Twins
What sounds like a good storyline turns out to be a dull and tedious account of these girls failed childhood...Alcoholic mother who kills herself leaving one anorexic and hospitalised and the other going about her tedious life questioning but not coming up with anything vaguely interesting about their troubled pasts.(I actually listened to it twice just to check that I`d not missed the point of it somewhere along the long line,but sadly I hadn`t)!
The biggest non-event of a book in a long time! :-(
