The Favourite
A story of three grown sisters, whose father - in a moment of crisis - accidentally lets slip that he has a favourite, from the author of New York Times bestseller Amazing Grace Adams.
Alex, Eva and Nancy. Three grown-up sisters; each wonderful and messy in their own individual ways. And loved equally by their parents, Vivienne and Patrick.
Or so they thought . . . Until on their annual family holiday, Patrick accidentally lets slip that he has a favourite daughter - causing other long-buried secrets to come to light.
Set over a single week, but examining the highs and lows that define a family over the decades, The Favourite is a story about rivalries and long-held resentments, about loss and grief and blame - and, above all, about love.
