This was a fun story with the narrow boats and the canal but the part about Kit’s fascination with his (finally confirmed!) biological cousin Lally was gross. I did like seeing Kincaid and Gemma actually interact this book but I still don’t find them ...more |

“As a child, watching the news or listening to it on the radio with my father I thought, when they said “the body was discovered by a man walking his dog,” that it was always the same man. I still imagine him, putting his walking shoes on at the door, finding the leash, the familiar dread as he clips it onto the dog’s collar, but still setting out, regardless, in the hope that, today, there won’t be a body. But twenty minutes later, God, there it is.”
