3 posts | 2 read

'A talented, witty writer with a sharp eye for social observation' Daily Mail After Frank drops down dead in Heathrow Arrivals on Christmas Eve, his estranged daughter Jem is called in to identify the body. When Jem travels back to Frank's house in France - a house she hasn't been in since she was a child - she realises that Frank had a son too. Frank has died of a congenital heart defect, a defect he may have passed on to his daughter - or on to his son. Jem must warn her brother, but in finding herself a family she risks ripping another apart. Shrewd, witty and poignant, The Frank Business is a vivid tale of love and other battlefields.

The Frank Business | OLIVIA. GLAZEBROOK

pick

A low Pick. Featuring an affair between 2 of the most vile characters I've read in a good while, and scenes of domestic abuse & animal cruelty that I felt were a little too hard-hitting for a book described as "smart and witty." It has an intriguing premise that runs out of steam in the last quarter, and, as much as I enjoyed the explanatory flashbacks, the main narrative doesn't have much resolution. Also, the vile mother needed her comeuppance!
