Reviews

Ulster Tatler
An insightful and thoughtful novel, which will entertain but will also leave the reader thinking long after they have finished reading it
BELFAST TELEGRAPH
The new Maeve Binchy
Wigan Evening Post
A gripping novel
Sunday Business Post
Finding Home rewards every second the reader spends with it. A creator of wonderfully memorable characters, even McAuley's secondary creations are complex, well realised and morally interesting figures. McAuley has a Maeve Binchy-like capacity to give her characters quirks and turns of phrase that make them seem instantly true-to-life and compellling
