Meet the Newells...A big family of good lookers and hard grafters. From their sleepy working class backwater, the siblings break into Oxford academia, London's high life, the glossy world of magazine publishing and the stratospheric riches of New York's hedge funds. Then there's Paddy, the wrong'un in their midst, who prefers life's dark underbelly. He has never fitted in with his siblings, and is the bad apple that can ruin the whole batch. The only person he has ever cared about is his stepfather, George, who sees only too clearly what Edie blinds herself to. As things fall apart around his sister Bea, is Paddy to blame? And why does matriarch Edie turn a blind eye to her son's malevolence? Will she stand by and watch while he wrecks the lives of her other children? Just how much is she willing to sacrifice to protect her son? What terrible secret is Edie hiding, and who else in the family is in the know? Welcome to the world of the Newells, where nothing is as it seems.
