NOTHING HURTS LIKE FAMILY.

Ines is reluctantly moving home on the edge of a breakdown, her childhood sweetheart in tow. He's only ever wanted what was best for her.

Gwen is elated that her prodigal daughter has returned.

Dylan is still licking her wounds from a rejection she can't forget.

And Emma is quietly suffocating in the perfect marriage she wanted so badly.

They were inseparable once. But that was a long time ago. Now, they're back in the Welsh town where they grew up, peeling back the layers of a once forgotten, haunting past. What they find may be the end of them...

Uninhibited, claustrophobic and complex, Selfish Girls spans generations, buried resentments, and an unexpected love story. It is a clear-eyed portrait of a dysfunctional family and the pain we inflict on those we love most.

'Sharply real and ethereal, as though reading this novel enters you into a dream-like state' Emma Gannon, Sunday Times bestseller

'Bold, lean and enduring' Maxime Mei-Fung Chung, author of What Women Want
