What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
From the highly-acclaimed author of SMALL PLEASURES - longlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction 2021
Abigail Jex never expected to see any of the Radley household again.
The Radley's were extraordinary, captivating creatures transplanted from a bohemian corner of North London to outer suburbia, and the young Abigail found herself drawn into their magic circle: the eccentric Frances, her new best friend; Frances' mother, the liberated, headstrong Lexi; and of course the brilliant, beautiful Rad.
Abigail thought she'd banished the ghost of her life with them and the catastrophe that ended it, but thirteen years later a chance encounter forces her to acknowledge that the spell is far from broken...
