“I stare at the photo. I try to read his gaze, each fold on his face, the slight frown. I study the photo in the same way that a spy might study the face of a counterpart in a rival organisation. I am calm as I make this promise: I am going to find out what you love, then whatever it is, I am going to track it down and I am going to take it away from you.”

When two police officers knock on Laura’s door to inform her that her nine-year-old daughter, Betty, has been the victim of a hit-and-run incident, Laura’s life is turned upside down. Justice is slow to respond, and after the death is eventually ruled an accident, Laura decides to take revenge into her own hands, determined to track down the man responsible and inflict the devastating consequences of incurring a mother's rage and grief. All the while, her inner turmoil is reopening the old wounds of her passionate love affair with Betty’s father David, and his abandonment of the family for another woman.

Haunted by her past, and driven to a breaking point by her thirst for retribution, Laura discovers the unforeseen lengths she is willing to go to for love and vengeance. Whatever You Love is a heart-wrenching novel of revenge, compulsion, attachment, and desire.
