'It was dark and sad and powerful and poetic. Just addictive, and bloody marvellous' Louise Beech

The Leftovers is a story about sexual power and consent, the myth of the perfect victim, and a dark exploration of the things we do for

and to

the ones we love.

Callie's life is spent caring for others

for Frey, her client, and for Noah, her brother. When a tragic car accident shatters her family, she's left alone with her mother Vanessa. Vanessa's favorite child was Noah; Callie's favorite parent was her dad. Now they're stuck with each other - the leftovers of their family - and they'll have to confront the ways they've been hurt, and the ways they've passed that hurt on to others.

Praise for Cassandra:

'A thoughtful novel. Parkin creates authentic, interesting characters' Carys Bray

'Fresh and original, written vividly and with lair. I was completely engrossed!' Katherine Webb

'A dark, eloquently creepy tale. Parkin's prose quivers with visceral terror' Carol Lovekin
