Praise for Trust: 'Sharply captures the menace of suddenly finding the world may not be at all as you've thought it.' Helen Dunmore
Tessa Craig has always had an interest in the fragility of the mind; she found it fascinating and so became a psychiatrist. Now life is good for her: she has a happy marriage and, successful in her career, is in line for promotion. But then comes the day her world falls apart - the day she discharges schizophrenic Paula Hickey. Tessa believes that her patient is ready to face the outside world, but as the consequences of her decision starts to unfold she is forced to question herself and her ability. For Paula murders a woman named Alysson. This terrible event brings into debate Tessa's ability as a psychiatrist. How will she survive through this turbulent time? Feeling the desperate need to explain her actions, she meets up with Alysson's partner, Ben, and they begin a relationship. But is Ben just using her to get more information, and is she doing it out of a sense of guilt? Can her life ever be the same? This is a clever, thoughtful story about guilt, responsibility and the nature of sanity. (Kirkus UK)
