A Sweetheart Deal

A Sweetheart Deal

Published

January 2010

Imaginative and passionate, Mel Holloway senses that there is more to life than her job, or her relationship with her ailing boyfriend, can provide. The accidental death of a man she has never met changes her irrevocably – leading her to form a complex bond with the grieving wife of the victim, which, for Mel at least, deepens into love. A Sweetheart Deal is a story of loss and longing, friendship and desire; of the city and its everyday joys and terrors. Ben Richards is also the author of The Mermaid and the Drunks, chosen by Channel 4’s Richard and Judy as part of their Summer Read.
