The Dead Bed - Paperback

by Robert Edsall (Author)

Patrick is about to spend his first Christmas alone after separating from his wife, Claire. Their adult son, Ben, took off in another direction around the same time. A family in bits all over Sydney.

They are plunged back into crisis when Ben reappears with a new girlfriend, Annie.

'But she's dead, ' Ben says. 'That's what I wanted to ask you about.'

The police follow one angle on Annie's death, but Patrick thinks they've got it wrong and stumbles dangerously towards the truth.

As Sydney swelters towards Christmas, things spin out of control. Patrick wants his broken family back together again, but can he convince Claire and save Ben?
