Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The darker side of sister-love lies at the heart of this gothic debut novel. From her outlook on the first floor, Ginny watches and waits for her younger sister to return to the "vast Victorian folly" that was once their childhood home.
Now grey-haired and potty, the reclusive lepidopterist has rarely ventured outside its walls. There are family secrets to reveal, and Poppy Adams keeps the reader pinned to the page.
Who shoved the young Vivi off the bell-tower and who pushed mother Maud down the stairs? Adams's book will cast a pleasant chill over any summer reading list.
