Scenes of a Graphic Nature

CHARLIE REGAN'S LIFE ISN'T GOING FORWARD, SO SHE'S DECIDED TO GO BACK. 'Wonderful - about friendship and failure, Ireland and England, love and guilt, cover-ups and brutal honesty' - MARIAN KEYES * 'A perfect page-turner. I loved it' - DOLLY ALDERTON

After a tough few years floundering around the British film industry, experimenting with amateur pornography and watching her father's health rapidly decline, Charlie and her best friend Laura journey to her ancestral home of Clipim, an island off the west coast of Ireland.

Knowing this could be the last chance to connect with her dad's history before she loses him, Charlie clings to the idea of her Irish roots offering some kind of solace. But when the girls arrive at Clipim, Charlie begins to question both her difficult relationship with Laura and her father's childhood stories. Before long, she's embroiled in a devastating conspiracy that's been sixty years in the making . . . and it's up to her to reveal the truth of it.

'So dark and funny ... you're in for a treat' - AYISHA MALIK * 'I was so hooked on this beautiful, funny story of homecoming and self-discovery I didn't want to put it down' - KEITH STUART * 'Blisteringly funny and clever ... I can't recommend this enough' - LUCY VINE * 'I absolutely loved it. It made me really think about identity, who we are, and why we do what we do. Such a beautiful book, I can't stop thinking about it' - EMMA GANNON
