The Blindspot cover

'Beautifully written and heartbreaking, The Blindspot perfectly brings to life family complexities...It stays with you long after you’ve left the page.' Heather Critchlow, author of Unsolved

Abi Campbell’s brother Jack has everything to look forward to: just 18 and finishing his A-levels, he’s a star student with a prestigious university scholarship awaiting him. The youngest of five, Jack has largely been raised by Abi after their mother died, and she adores him.

The Campbells’ world is turned on its head when, one summer morning, the police arrive to arrest Jack. His childhood friend Katie has accused him of a terrible crime. The worst one.

Rumours about what happened swirl through their small seaside town, turning friends against friends and brothers against brothers. Only Abi stands by Jack while it seems the rest of the world point fingers. She knows he is innocent. He has to be. He’s her golden boy. And blood is thicker than water.

But can you love someone too much?

'The Blindspot is a stunning and thought provoking novel about a large family whose lives are upended when the youngest brother is accused of a terrible crime. Since their mother died, Abi Campbell has raised her little brother Jack, who is finishing school and on the cusp of starting his adult life when he is arrested. What follows is a compelling journey through Abi’s memories of Jack’s childhood, alongside her disintegrating present, as she wrestles with the question of whether the person she loves is capable of such a thing. Beautifully written and heartbreaking, The Blindspot perfectly brings to life family complexities and the nuances of the case. It stays with you long after you’ve left the page behind.' Heather Critchlow, author of Unsolved
