Rosalind Minett

    A chartered psychologist by training, this author crafts narratives around ordinary individuals thrust into unusual circumstances, or unconventional personalities struggling to belong. Their writing style is characterized by a light touch, yet even humorous tales possess a distinct dark undertone. The author explores psychological dramas and historical settings, often from a unique viewpoint, blending seriousness with irony. This approach mirrors their interest in sculpture, where form is refined and details are pared down, much like character development in fiction.

    Uncommon Relations: Who should be forgiven
    • A weird encounter is about to shake Terry to the core! His safe childhood home, his loving but obstructive wife, an emotionally risky search and uncovered truths mean a predictable life-style gone for good (or bad). Transfixed by the unexpected sight of a double on his morning commute, Terry is about to change his humdrum life forever. Excited and disturbed by the mystery, he rushes home to tell his wife, but she's strangely avoidant, so he begins a search for origins in secret. Who is he, and is it too risky to find out? His predictable life becomes confusing, then bizarre. Soon it will become shocking. Terry's forced to re-examine what he'd previously believed were facts about himself, and his marriage. Follow the many colourful characters in Part One of this "mesmerizing and penetrating" psychological domestic drama series. If you loved The Dilemma and Girl on a Train, this series is for you. "Stunning writing this, with a hint of the mystique that lies in the following pages. The difficulty? Waiting for the next volume to consume! Highly Recommended." San Francisco Review of Books
