Description: Longlisted for the Man Booker Prize Shortlisted for the Commonwealth PrizeA Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year'Deeply moving, wonderfully written . . . a study of grief and remorse.'--Times (London)'In this potent mystery . . . Edwards makes us greedy for the full story.'--New York TimesPlagued by guilt, paralyzed by shame, Jinx has spent the years since her mother's death alone, estranged from her husband, withdrawn from her son, and entrenched in a childhood home filled with fierce and violent memories. When Lemon, an old family friend, appears unbidden at the door, he seduces Jinx with a heady mix of powerful storytelling and tender care. What follows is a tense and passionate weekend, as the two join forces to unravel the tragedy that binds them. Jinx has long carried the burden of the past; now she must relive her mother's last days, confront her grief head-on, and speak the truth as only she knows it.Expertly woven and perfectly paced, A Cupboard Full of Coats is both a heartbreaking family drama and a riveting mystery, with a cast of characters who linger in the mind and the heart long after the last page has been turned. 'Engrossing and human to the core, Edwards's novel wrings the heart in the most tender of ways.'--Publishers Weekly (starred review)'A piercing and engaging narrative that navigates through past and present heartache with tenderness and candor. This promising new author twists and turns words with skill reminiscent of Toni Morrison and Barbara Kingsolver, who similarly explore hidden and revealed secrets.'--Booklist
