Never Close Your Eyes - Thryft

Compelling tale of lives intertwined in competition.

This book would be a good read for those who enjoy character-driven stories with multiple plotlines. Burstall's skill at weaving the tales of each character, with their own unique dilemmas, together in a cohesive manner makes for an engaging read. The writing competition is a unique element that adds an extra layer of tension to the already complex relationships.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Evie, Nic, and Becca are wannabe writers. The three friends are members of a creative writing group and they decide to enter a national competition. But while they ponder their plots and agonize about their characters, their own lives are going far from smoothly. Evie's still pining for the husband who left her for a younger woman and is relying increasingly on clairvoyant Zelda. But who is Zelda really? Nic's battling a drink problem and is in despair about her workaholic husband who is addicted to his laptop. A shocking discovery shakes her to the core, but will she realize in time that she must stop protecting him? Becca's a City highflyer who seems to have everything—until a childhood friend turns up, threatening to expose the secret she's kept buried for nearly 30 years. How will her marriage, her children, and her friendships survive it? And on top of that, there's a deadline. The women have just eleven months to complete their manuscripts. Who will win the competition—and can there be any real-life happy endings?
