Such a Good Family: An Addictive and Unputdownable Story of Family Secrets - Paperback

by Caitlin Weaver (Author)

Lorrie has the perfect life. Eden has the perfect life. And their perfect lives are about to implode.

Lorrie and Eden have been best friends ever since they bonded as newcomers to their affluent suburb when their children were little. They're used to letting themselves into each other's houses for coffee after school drop-off, and gossiping about their neighbors over wine at their book club. So, when their teenage kids, Knox and Summer, start dating just before graduation, they're surprised but delighted; after all, they've been planning their wedding since the kids were toddlers splashing around in the paddling pool together.

But one night Knox comes home late after a party with scratches on his collarbone, refusing to tell Lorrie what happened, and heading straight for the shower.

The next morning Eden gets a call every mother dreads: Summer is in hospital.

As the fall-out from what really happened that night rips their tight-knit, privileged community apart and decimates Eden and Lorrie's friendship, none of their lives will ever be the same again.

An unforgettable and emotionally charged story of two families whose lives are changed forever by a devastating accusation, this stunning debut will captivate fans of Liane Moriarty, Jodi Picoult and Lucinda Berry.
