Clive and Martha have been a couple since they met at
university; they now have a young daughter, Eliza, and on
the surface, all seems well in their family. But neither
Martha nor young Eliza know that the story of this happy
marriage harbors a secret scene: a momentary betrayal that
could have destroyed the marriage before it even began. Only
Clive knows about the trap door in their history but he's
convinced that, with the intervening years, the incident has
lost its power.
But when Eliza comes home from school one day and excitedly
announces that she has a new piano teacher called Eliot Fox,
the guise of domestic tranquility threatens to shatter. The
enigmatic Eliot Fox knows the secret that Clive is desperate
to keep hidden. As her presence in the family's life grows,
so too does the ominous shadow of the past that looms over
Clive.
Glazebrook's darkly suspenseful tale of a family in crisis
reveals how seemingly ordinary lives can contain
extraordinary acts of destruction. Told with intensity and
penetrating emotion, Never Mind Miss Fox is a compelling
tale of guilt, justice, and what it really means to make amends.
