Title: Where the serpent lives
Description: Why is Rosamund so paralyzed by Tyler and his secrets? The whole world was once in love with her. Now, married to the dangerously charismatic Tyler, estranged from her conservationist father, despairing of her teenage son's silences, she feels completely alone. Revisiting the almost forgotten world of her Indian childhood may help, but can her family survive the changes she must make to save herself? Ruth Padel has set her captivating debut in London, Devon and the jungles of India. But at its heart is a family in crisis. This a beautifully evocative tale about love, science, renewal and the place of wild nature in human lives.
