From the winner of the Women’s Prize – an intense story of a passionate love affair arriving at its first test.

A rainy Camden night, December 1996. 20-year-old Eily and 40-year-old Stephen retrace the course of their two-year love affair in search of what’s gone wrong. Is it Stephen’s reconnection with his long-lost teenage daughter, Grace? Or that he’s a well-known actor while Eily’s still at drama school? Maybe the autobiographical film he’s just made has brought his old demons back to the surface? Or perhaps Eily’s youth has led her into a mistake she doesn’t know how to fix?

Intimate, experiential, and immersive, this is the story of what happens when it’s love beyond question, but trouble comes along anyway.
