Acclaimed author William Boyle, who has come to be known as the 'crime poet of Brooklyn', follows the lives of two sisters who become embroiled in an accidental murder and a well-planned cover-up. 'William Boyle's best novel yet, a vibrant, operatic tale of two resilient, big-hearted sisters and the fateful night that sets their life on a path they never intended. Not since Richard Price has a writer brought New York to such vivid, spectacular life' Megan Abbott, New York Times bestselling author of Beware the WomanGravesend, Brooklyn, 1986: Risa Franzone lives in a ground-floor apartment on Saint of the Narrows Street with her bad-seed husband, Saverio, and their eight-month-old baby, Fabrizio. Risa is a loving mother, a faithful wife, a saintly neighbour - but lately, her husband's slow dive into criminality and abuse has threatened her peace, raising concerns about her and her baby's safety. On the night her younger sister, Giulia, moves in with Risa to recover from a bad break-up, a fateful accident occurs: Risa, boiled over with anger and fear, strikes a drunk, erratic Sav with a cast-iron pan, killing him on the spot. The sisters are left with a choice: notify the authorities and make a case for selfdefense, or bury the man's body and go on with their lives as best they can. In a moment of panic, in the late hours of the night, they call upon Sav's childhood friend-the sweet, loyal Christopher "Chooch" Gardini-to help them, hoping they can trust him to carry a secret like this. Over the vast, dramatic expanse of the next eighteen years, life goes on in the working-class Italian neighbourhood of Gravesend as Risa, Giulia, and Chooch grapple with the choice they made that night-and each forge a different path when the cracks of a supposedly seamless cover-up begin to reveal themselves.

'Happiness and wellbeing are often in conflict. In fact, the things that make for a full life typically involve a mix of emotions. If you seek only the pleasant ones, you'll end up with tranquillity, not happiness. Maybe that's what you want. No judgement. But I want more. And, given that you're reading this book, I suspect you do too.'Forget the oversimplified 'happiness hacks' - true wellbeing is richer, more demanding, and collective. This groundbreaking book by renowned interdisciplinary scholar Dr. Mark Fabian dives deep into what true wellbeing means - far beyond simple happiness. Beyond Happy brings together honest case studies, psychological research, personal experiences and ancient philosophy to change the way we think about happiness, and to illuminate how it can really be achieved. Tackling today's challenges, from cultural malaise to creeping nihilism, requires more than just feel-good fixes. Dr Mark Fabian redefines wellbeing as something we do together, weaving practical insights with bold ideas on how to build a culture beyond capitalism that places wholeness at its core. This isn't just another self-help book; it's a deep, refreshing take on how we can thrive as individuals and as communities.
