Previous Convictions

Work:: Previous Convictions (S0681665944)

When idealistic aid worker Tony comes back to England after nearly twenty years in South America, he finds a country altered beyond recognition. He also finds a sister deep in the crisis of bereavement, angry daughter, and a marriage foundering on her husband's depression. . As brother and sister become reacquainted, they find themselves renewing an old conflict about the origins of their family's prosperity. A story which starts as a domestic mystery rapidly deepens into a drama of political fall-out in family life. Interweaving passionate debate with emotional disclosure, Previous Convictions is an astonishingly clear-eyed study of hope, duty and moral obligation in a shifting society.
