An addictive love story told in reverse

The Brink follows Dan and Anya Moorcroft, who have decided to get a divorce. Together, they've done it all: two kids, three owned houses, four rented flats, fifty-something holidays, and one affair apiece. Now, after fifteen years together (nine of them married), they're on the brink.

As they go through couples' mediation, revisiting and rediscovering their shared history in sessions surrounded by lawyers and paperwork, are they about to find something worth saving? Or will they reaffirm their decision to end things for good?

Each section of the book is a focus area for the divorce mediation process: sex, home, money, family, and 'us'. Through this, the novel explores how marriage is built on bonds between people and the experiences they share. It travels back in time to reveal Dan and Anya's past and then returns to the present day as they work out their future.
