The Sunday Times bestseller from Graham Norton 'A magnificent novelist.' STUART HERITAGE for
THE GUARDIAN 'Blend[s] dark humour and emotional weight with ease.' RADIO TIMES 'His best yet.'
THE SUNDAY POST 'Full of Graham's trademark warmth and wit. It's also a complex mystery that
ties its characters together in ways they'd least expect.' SUNDAY EXPRESS 'Dark funny full of
emotional intelligence and gripping from the start. ..beautifully written... Wonderful.' DAILY
MAIL 'Beautifully constructed with a twisty plot ... the perfect mix of levity and melancholy.
A cracking read.' JO BRAND 'A winning mix of family drama and comedy crime caper ... you may
well find yourself reading it in one sitting.' HEAT 'Oh my GOD Forever Home is FABULOUS... His
skill at gimlet-eyed observation and nuanced characterisation is *chef's kiss* but this book is
SO FUNNY... It's a DELIGHT.' MARIAN KEYES Carol is a divorced teacher living in a small town in
Ireland her only son now grown. A second chance at love brings her unexpected connection and
belonging. The new relationship sparks local speculation: what does a woman like her see in a
man like that? What happened to his wife who abandoned them all those years ago? But the gossip
only serves to bring the couple closer. When Declan becomes ill things start to fall apart.
His children are untrusting and cruel and Carol is forced to leave their beloved home with its
worn oak floors and elegant features and move back in with her parents. Carol's mother is
determined to get to the bottom of things she won't see her daughter suffer in this way. It
seems there are secrets in Declan's past strange rumours that were never confronted and
suddenly the house they shared takes on a more sinister significance. In his tense and darkly
comic new novel Norton casts a light on the relationship between mothers and daughters and
truth and self-preservation with unnerving effect. 'Effortlessly readable possessed of a super
twist and full of rounded characters to keep close to your heart.' THE OBSERVER 'What a
fabulous read... Forever Home is his best so far. It's a complex and compelling story - truly
unputdownable - but most importantly for me it has real heart.' MARY LAWSON 'The latest comedy
noir by Graham Norton features fractured families at their worst. I loved it!' LIZ NUGENT 'A
tale of new beginnings and old secrets. Norton is the king of the Irish small town mystery.'
