Sinossi
Mrs May – Blurb A respectable married schoolteacher journeys from the comfortable middle-class suburbs of a university city into its seamy subcultures. She is on a mission to rescue a teenage boy who has turned his back on privilege to run feral on the streets. It is a quest that will transform both their lives. In the unravelling of the boy’s tangled psychology, the woman becomes lost in the dark recesses of her own psyche. So who will be redeemed in the end, the wayward boy or the tormented woman who came to save him? Perhaps both... Perhaps neither... David Pick's is a new and important voice on the block: acute observation, accomplished writing, and a story that sucks you in from page one. A fine read. Graham Hurley, author of the best-selling D/I Faraday series. Mrs May is more than a psychological thriller. Mrs May sheds light on the shadowy world of youth crime and youth justice, raising issues that society would be foolish to ignore. Mrs May will make you think. David Pick has produced a blistering read, which, through medium of personal tragedy and redemption explores a subject too often hidden from the public gaze, the effect on an individual who does not conform to the restrictions of the system and falls through a gap that lacks any kind of safety net. To bring about change in a troubled life it takes only one person to care, but that sometimes comes at a cost to the individual concerned. This is the territory explored in Mrs May in a psycho-sexual roller coaster that is impossible to put down. Jack Ludlow, author of The Burning Sky
