Q. What's a girl to do when she loses everything?
A. Run away.
Diana Moore is 33 and about (so her Aunt Margaret predicts) to have the best three years she's ever had. Which is a relief since tomorrow she's facing The Biggest Day of her Life so far. A friend's wedding, to which her ex (otherwise known as The Monster) is also invited. And Diana, brown of hair, size nine of shoe and wide of thigh, is going - alone.
But somehow Aunt Margaret's got it wrong. And next day all thoughts of weddings, exes and her irritating dot.com job tribulations seem absurdly irrelevant. For Diana is really alone. The car containing her mother, father and only brother has collided with a large truck on a small road. And from that moment on everything she's known is changed. Including Diana.
Deft, funny, heartfelt and uplifting in its emotional truthfulness, 'Cranberry Queen' is a novel about grief, friendship and secrets, one of the most memorable fiction debuts of the year.
