Set on the island of Guernsey over a period of twenty years, these closely linked stories tear back the façade of a small community to reveal the desires, friendships, betrayals, regrets and heartaches of twelve intertwined people. Against a backdrop of picturesque cliffs and beaches, grimy clubs and pubs and chip shops, these twelve people''s stumbling attempts to connect with each other are depicted with wrenching pathos, wry humour and moving empathy.
