Completely brilliant - you won't be able to turn the pages fast enough. * Bella *
I shouted at this novel. I cast it away, abandoned, only to return to its beguiling pages. * Buzz *

Move over Jodi Picoult. New Zealand-based author Charity Norman has the same clever knack of taking an issue and examining it from all angles, to see the effect it has on everyone involved. * New Zealand Herald *
This is another wonderful and very thought-provoking story that I consumed in a single day. * The Sun on The Son-in-Law *
Engrossing. * Woman and Home on The Son-in-Law *

Charity Norman was born in Uganda and brought up in successive draughty vicarages in Yorkshire and Birmingham. After several years' travel she became a barrister, specialising in crime and family law. In 2002, realising that her three children had barely met her, she took a break from the law and moved with her family to New Zealand. Her second novel After the Fall was selected for the Richard & Judy Book Club. The New Woman is her fourth novel.
