It's been a long time since I've enjoyed a novel so much. It tells the story of Hannah Buchan from the Sixties to the present day. She is the very sensible daughter of not so sensible parents who, to their utter disappointment, chose to marry at the age of twenty a nice future doctor and to become a teacher. But one night something happened, something for which she'll be punished but not until decades later . . .
