Would you betray someone you love to give them what they want? Bec Shepherd is a malaria researcher struggling to lead a good life. Ritchie, her reprobate brother, is a rock star turned TV producer.

Recensione:
'Addictive . . . Meek is a novelist of Dostoevskyan intensity . . . encompassing blackmail, murder and sexual infidelity. You have to admire the scope and ambition of this operatic saga' Guardian
'A book about how to be good in bad times' BBC Radio 4
'The Heart Broke In has a Dickensian cast list [and] Meek's range, humour and boldness are a joy' Observer
'This is a big juicy slab of a book, as thrilling and nourishing as a Victorian three-parter' Spectator
'A moral thriller' Philip Pullman
'Britain's answer to Don DeLillo . . . Where DeLillo sustains a brittle, glassy idiom, Meek, like Tolstoy, surrenders to the human . . . A complex meditation on death and time and the family' Independent
'One of the country's finest writers' --GQ Magazine
