The Complete Guide to Beading Techniques by Jane Davis

A FAMILY'S JUMBLED FIGHT TO SURVIVE. . . .

Homecoming celebrations and big donor gifts don't always mean high spirits as a troubled university couple each seek divergent paths to heal their damaged household. When a billionaire grad school dropout unveils plans for a major gift, the Sutherlands must endure the bizarre rituals of rich alumni and reunion receptions. Rob drinks and rants. Molly rolls dice and dreams of winning her own identity. Their gifted teenage daughters push and pull at the rules in opposite directions. Over the course of the weekend, they each confront their deepest secrets and undeniable flaws. A splendid debut novel that navigates a twisted trail of comical regrets and heart-wrenching uncertainty.

Davis, Jane: - Hailed by The Bookseller as 'One to Watch', Jane Davis writes thought-provoking novels, which straddle contemporary, historical, literary and women's fiction genres, have earned her comparisons to authors such as Kate Atkinson, Maggie O'Farrell and Jodi Picoult. Jane spent her twenties and the first half of her thirties chasing promotions in the business world, but when she achieved what she'd set out to do, she discovered that it wasn't what she wanted after all. It was then that she turned to writing. After her first novel, Half-Truths and White Lies, won an award which was established with the aim of finding 'the next Joanne Harris', it took Jane a little while to work out that all she really wanted to be was a slightly shinier version of herself. An Unknown Woman, was Writing Magazine's Self-Published Book of the Year 2016. Most recently, Smash all the Windows was the winner of the Selfies (best independently-published work of fiction) Award 2019. Jane lives in Carshalton, Surrey, in what she describes as 'a totally impractical money-pit of a house', with her Formula 1 obsessed, beer-brewing partner, who would be considerably happier if she hadn't turned the dining room table into a writing desk. When she isn't writing, you may spot Jane disappearing up the side of a mountain in the Lake District with a camera in hand.
