Find it!
A witty, charming and moving novel about finding things where you least expect them. 'Falling Short' follows 39-year-old school-teacher Frances Pilgrim, whose father vanished when she was five and since then is still losing things - car-keys, promotions, an endless roster of unsuitable boyfriends. She'd like to confide in her best friend, a fellow teacher called Jackson, but they haven't spoken since a wine-fuelled evening when things got complicated. Her mother is now slowly yielding to Alzheimer's and her father's disappearance is giving rise to some disturbing questions.
