The highly anticipated new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Clockmaker’s Daughter, a seminal novel that begins with a shocking crime and has repercussions that span continents and generations.
Adelaide Hills, Christmas Eve 1959: At the end of a hot day, beside a stream at a grand country house, a local man makes a horrific discovery. Police were called and the small town of Tambira became embroiled in one of the most puzzling murder investigations in South Australia’s history.
Many years later, thousands of miles away, Jesse is a reporter looking for a story. She had lived and worked in London for twenty years and now found herself unemployed and unable to make ends meet. A phone call from nowhere summons her back to Sydney, where her beloved grandmother Nora, who raised Jesse when her mother was unable to, falls and ends up very ill in hospital. Heavy.
At Nora’s house, Jess discovers a true crime book chronicling a long-buried police case: the 1959 Turner Family Tragedy. It’s only as Jess browses the book that she discovers a shocking connection between her family and the infamous incident – a mystery that has never been satisfactorily solved.
An epic story that spans generations, Homecoming asks what we do for the people we love, how we protect the lies we tell, and what it means to come home. Above all, this is a complex and engrossing novel by one of the best writers working today.
