A bold and timely novel from #1 bestselling author Joanne Harris that explores how women can feel invisible as they grow older - and what happens when they decide to take back control...
Have you ever felt invisible? Bernie Moon has given her life to other people: her husband, her son, her friends (who are these days, mostly online). At nineteen she was full of dreams and ambitions; now almost fifty, and going through the menopause, shes fading, fast. Heartbroken and hormonal, she often feels like shes losing her mind.
But when a young woman is murdered in a local park, it sparks a series of childhood memories in Bernie and with them, a talent that has lain dormant most of her adult life.
She promised herself shed never think of it again. When she was a teenager, it almost destroyed her. But now shes older, could it be the power shes been missing? Could it be the chance to, finally, make them look?
