Bridge of Clay Synopsis

'Achingly moving, delightfully funny, and thoroughly uplifting.' M L STEDMAN, author of THE LIGHT BETWEEN OCEANS
'This book BLEW ME AWAY' JODI PICOULT
'Rowdy and joyous, with flashes of wit and insight, and ultimately moving' TIMES

Our mother was dead. Our father had fled

Five Dunbar brothers are living - fighting, loving, grieving - in the perfect chaos of a house without grown-ups.

This is a family rocked by tragedy and long buried secrets. To understand his family's story, Matthew Dunbar must travel to find three things. A lost typewriter -- A dead dog -- The bones of the snake that killed it.

He will learn of a mother who crosses continents for a new home; of a father searching for love in the keys of an old piano; and, finally, of a brother named Clay, who will make the most challenging journey of them all, and change their lives for ever.
