Very Slowly All at Once

Mack and Hailey are working hard to build the perfect life. What could be wrong with accepting a little help along the way?

‘[A] devilishly twisted debut which I could not put down.’ Gillian McAllister

Mack and Hailey Evans have just about made it: two promising careers, two beautiful children, a brand-new house in an exclusive lakefront village. There have been a few bumps in the road, however, and their finances have taken a hit.

But someone is looking out for them: cheques have started coming in the mail. Mack is sure the money is from his estranged father. Hailey has her own suspicions. But as the mystery funds are sucked down the drain of the Evans household finances, Hailey and Mack are about to learn a very hard lesson: nothing in life comes for free.

Trapped by the dodgy cheques they’ve accepted and spent, the Evanses have unwittingly entered into an unthinkable arrangement, and are now at the mercy of someone who will stop at nothing to get a return on their investment.

VERY SLOWLY ALL AT ONCE is a gripping and all-too-relatable novel about a marriage under extreme pressure and an exploration of how far we’ll go to hold onto the life we want – and the people we love.

‘A book that asks: What is the cost of your family's happiness? The diabolical premise at the center will keep you guessing until the very end’ Sarina Bowen, author of Dying to Meet You and The Five-Year Lie
