CHOSEN BY GAIL HONEYMAN ON BBC RADIO 4 A GOOD READ
'Sad, funny and full of charm - a delight' Gail Honeyman, author of Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine

LONGLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE AND THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION

SHORTLISTED FOR THE GUARDIAN FIRST BOOK AWARD

A lost little girl with her notebook and toy monkey appears on the CCTV screens of the Green Oaks shopping centre, evoking memories of junior detective Kate Meaney, missing for 20 years.

Kurt, a security guard with a sleep disorder, and Lisa, a disenchanted deputy manager at Your Music, follow her through the centre's endless corridors - welcome relief from the tedium of their lives.

But as this after-hours friendship grows in intensity, it brings new loss and new longing to light.
