The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret by Catherine Johnson
The alternating stories of two women (played by the same actress), both of whom ‘lose’ their sons – one murdered, the other a runaway.
Unsuspecting Susan by Stewart Permutt
The story of Susan – whose life revolves around her dogs, am-dram, bell-ringing and village gossip – and her adult son who’s converted to Islam.
