Caboodle Firsts: Read one of 100 copies of Catherine Alliott's Behind Closed Doors before anyone else 

Behind Closed Doors

We're giving 100 Caboodlers the chance to read Catherine Alliott's new page-turner before it's out in March 2021. 

From the outside, anyone would think that Lucy Palmer has it all: loving children, a dashing husband and a gorgeous home. But when her marriage to Michael comes to a sudden and unexpected end, her life is turned upside down in an instant.

As the truth of her marriage threatens to surface, Lucy seizes the opportunity to swap her house in London – and the stories it hides – or a rural escape to her parents’ farmhouse in the Chilterns.

But Lucy gets more than she bargained for when she moves back to her childhood home.  With her parents growing older disgracefully, she can hardly keep up with their social life – especially when it throws her into the path of an old flame.

Coming face-to-face with her mistakes, Lucy is forced to confront the secrets she's been keeping from herself and those she loves.

Is she ready to let someone in? Or will she leave the door to her past firmly closed...

Catherine Alliott explores love, loss and family in her new novel, Behind Closed Doors.
