Breaking Point

Autor Edel Coffey
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 feb 2023

Breaking Point is raw, compelling, and ground-breaking;

Coffey puts the life of working mothers under a microscope. To say I loved it is an understatement, I expect it will be a huge success.' Liz Nugent

'A gripping, compulsive pageturner about what we expect from women, especially mothers. It's going to be a massive hit.' Marian Keyes

One mistake could cost her everything.

Susannah has two beautiful daughters, a high-flying medical career, a successful husband and an enviable life. Her hair is glossy, her clothes are expensive; she truly has it all.

But when - on the hottest day of the year - her strict morning routine is disrupted, Susannah finds herself running on autopilot. It is hours before she realises she has made a devastating mistake. Her baby, Louise, is still in the backseat of the car and it is too late to save her.

As the press close in around her, Susannah is put on trial for negligence. It is plain to see that this is not a trial, it's a witch hunt. But what will the court say?

Recenzii

It's a knockout, you're going to love it.
Breaking Point has all the hallmarks of a future bestseller . . . it has the pace, setting and glamour of a Hollywood thriller.
This very human story examines the heavy burden on working mothers, spinning the innumerable plates of parenting and career. Are working women set up to lose, to fail their children, and to fail themselves? Shocking, thought-provoking, and necessary, Breaking Point will change hearts and minds.
Skilfully explores what it means to be a woman trying to juggle it all - and the consequences when tragedy strikes. You won't be able to put this down.
It grips from get go.
Expect this book to be a mainstay of bookclubs in 2022.
You won't be able to put this one down.
This is not only a gripping page-turner and gripping courtroom drama, it also has a lot to say about the expectations and judgement put on women when they become mothers. Prepare to feel devastated and enraged all at once.
A heart-in-mouth type of novel that will have you wonder how you'd react if in similar circumstances.
The book promises to be one of the most talked-about of the year.
Hugely compelling - I devoured it in a day . . . a compulsive debut that keeps you turning its pages.
This debut novel from Edel Coffey craftily spins out that nightmare scenario of a clock you can't turn back, a situation you can't fix and how quickly envy turns to universal hate.
This chilling, emotional thriller explores the burdens placed on working mothers in the wake of a high-flying doctor's tragic mistake.
