'A complex, riveting novel of love and hope that grips at the heart' The Sunday Times

A reclusive former film star living in the wilds of Ireland, Claudette Wells thinks nothing of firing a gun if strangers get too close to her house. Why is she so fiercely protective of her family, and what made her walk out on her career at the height of her fame?

Her husband Daniel, reeling from a discovery about a woman he last saw twenty years ago, is about to make an exit of his own. It is a journey that will send him off-course, far from home. Will his love for Claudette be enough to bring him back?

This Must Be the Place crosses continents and time zones, creating a portrait of an extraordinary marriage, the forces that hold it together and the pressures that drive it apart.

'A tour de force. Dazzling' Observer

'A conjuror's sleight of hand... deft and compelling' Guardian

'Magnificent... perceptive, profound and page-turning in equal measures' Cathy Rentzenbrink
