Synopsis
What really goes on behind closed doors?
Catriona has the life she’s always dreamed of: a loving husband, a delightful step-daughter and her own precious little girl, Daisy. When Daisy begins to feel poorly, Catriona seeks help and, in doing so, is forced to look to the past and her own dark and fractured childhood.
When Cat is accused of an unspeakable crime, she begins to realise that the life she has now is more fragile than she could ever have imagined.

Review
'A captivating and beautifully written book.' --Now Magazine
'A captivating and beautifully written book.' --Now Magazine
'It s a premise familiar from some of Hitchcock's best movies: Seemingly upright people, through no fault of their own, see their lives unravel before their eyes. Margaret Leroy s Postcards from Berlin taps the compelling emotions inherent in that storyline.' --Seattle Times
