From the bestselling author of ''A Place Called Winter'', ''Tree Surgery for Beginners'' is a funny, elegant and eclectic novel of love, lies and the secrets we live with
When Lawrence Frost wakes up one morning to discover his wife and child have gone missing, there is gruesome evidence to suggest he may be the main suspect in a murder investigation. Confused, threatened with the loss of everything he loves, Lawrence is sent to the Caribbean on a kill-or-cure cruise, where he falls for a tall, aging transsexual. On board and ashore he will discover love, deceit, the truth about his missing family, and the blessings that come with surrendering to destiny.
This is vintage Gale - witty, poignant and utterly absorbing, and a sheer delight in a frightfully English, slightly disturbing way.
