Produktbeschreibung
Relatively Distant takes us on a journey that is peppered with typical life experiences, but in unusual and challenging circumstances. The story begins in the early seventies and brings us up to recent times. The main story is centred around a family of four, and is told at different stages from their individual viewpoints. As the younger characters mature, so does the underlying theme and the story becomes more serious and dark. Sibling rivalry is at its core, but there is an underlying history that doesn't fully reveal itself until the end. Although the book tackles some of life's difficulties, it is sprinkled throughout with humour that helps to balance the atmosphere. The eternal question of 'nature or nurture' is posed as the main characters develop and their personalities become apparent. Relatively Distant is best described as a family tragedy, wrapped up in a love story and ending in a mystery discovered.

Autorenporträt
Having received great interest and positive feedback from the readers of her first two books, Relatively Distant and Neighbourhood Watch, Gemma was encouraged by the appetite of her readers for a third book. With this in mind, she embarked on the final instalment of what she now refers to as 'The Emma Series'. As with the two previous books, Staying Relevant is the final book of a trilogy, but is also a standalone book, with its own story to tell. Again, her home county is all the inspiration needed for the location of Staying Relevant. Waterport resonates with most people that live in a close-knit community, that sometimes feels like everybody knows each other.
