Join us to celebrate Bookshop Day on Saturday 14th October, when Glossop’s own Matt Hill will be in the shop from 2-4pm signing copies of his new book, Lamb.
“When lorry driver Dougie Alport carries out a deadly attack on his employer’s head office, the reverberations of his actions unleash a grief in his wife Maureen that threatens to reveal the secret she has spent years hiding from their son, Boyd.
Moving north to start again is Maureen’s best response. But as the walls begin to throb with mould and his mother slips from his grasp, Boyd decides to flee, finding solace with a new friend at the landfill site on the edge of town. Here, a startling discovery upends Boyd’s new life and forces him into a reckoning with his mother, her past, and his future.
A visceral story of collective memory and moss-coated horror, Lamb asks us how far we’d go to protect those we love, and how intensely we are bound to those who have come before us.”
If you’d like to secure a signed copy please request one via the ‘Order a Book’ button or email darkpeakbooksandgifts@gmail.com and we’ll make sure one is set aside for you.
