Maybe Bea's ashamed of him, or maybe she regrets the secrets she's been keeping. Tragedy strikes and in its aftermath the family is stripped back to its heart, and then its rotten core?and even Bea, with all her strength and goodness, can't escape. A chilling page-turner, The Snakes is Sadie Jones at her best: powerful, incisive, and utterly devastating.
