But Hildy isn't one for self-pity and instead meets the world with a wry smile, a dark wit and a glass or two of Pinot Noir. When her two earnest grown-up children stage 'an intervention' and pack Hildy off to an addiction centre, she thinks all this fuss is ridiculous. After all, why shouldn't Hildy enjoy a drink now and then?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut as the story progresses, we start to see another side to Hildy Good, and to her life's greatest passion - the lies and self deceptions needed to support her drinking, and the damage she causes to those she loves. When a cluster of secrets become dangerously entwined, the reckless behaviour of one threatens to expose the other, with devastating consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e(First Target Book Club Edition, October 2013)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Next Chapter Books \u0026 Bookmobile","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44541977002121,"sku":"9781250049896","price":7.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0689\/6087\/8729\/files\/The_Good_House_-_Paperback_-_Front_Cover.jpg?v=1755909240","url":"https:\/\/www.nextchapterbookmobile.com\/products\/good-house-by-ann-leary","provider":"Next Chapter Books \u0026 Bookmobile","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
