I enjoyed the "Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time" very much by Haddon so when I saw this in a used bookstore here I bought it. I've enjoyed it very much. A story about a brother and sister who have been estranged for many years and the death of their mother brings them together. The brother, a well off doctor, rents a house in Wales for both families to stay for a week together. It's really quite wonderful done….excellent character development and great development of everyone's point of view.
