Discover this powerful novel about a family falling apart, from the Booker Longlisted author of A TOWN CALLED SOLACE

Twenty-one-year-old Megan Cartwright has never been outside the small town she was born in but one winter's day in 1966 she leaves everything behind and sets out for London. Ahead of her is a glittering new life, just waiting for her to claim it.

But left behind, her family begins to unravel. Disturbing letters from home begin to arrive and torn between her independence and family ties, Megan must make an impossible choice.

'Tender and surprising... A vivid and evocative tale' New York Times

Every bit as good as I expected. A heart-aching and beautifully written story of a family falling apart
Poignant
A beautiful novel, with the psychological twists and turns of each character gently and poignantly unfurled
Lawson grasps the anguished allure of family life played out against the vast, wintry backdrop of the Canadian landscape. Deftly she keeps our interest by dividing up the chapters between the characters to give shifting points of view on some universal themes
Road Ends is a captivating novel and a joy to read
Absorbing and emotionally pitch-perfect

This is my favourite novel by this master storyteller. Her main protagonist is young, full of depth and trying to shake off the shackles of her family duties. She flees to Europe but learns that obstacles can only be confronted head-on and not through physical distance. A magnificent novel, very well narrated by different voices for the different protagonists.
Absolutely wonderful!
