Lenny Marks Gets Away with Murder

By Kerryn Mayne

0 - Default Title
Description
In this powerful debut, an endearing but deeply introverted woman's carefully constructed routine starts to crumble when a letter from the parole board arrives in the mail, bringing the past she's long buried back to life. Lenny Marks is never unprepared. She spends her days teaching at the local elementary school and her nights watching reruns of Friends and playing Scrabble against an imaginary Monica Geller. She owns thirty-six copies of The Hobbit, arranged by height. Her wardrobe is limited to four colors (previously counted as three, but the distinction between charcoal and grey was impossible to ignore). And Lenny Marks is very, very good at not remembering what happened the day her mother left her when she was still a child, and her stepfather went to prison. Until a letter from the parole board arrives in the mail--and when her desperate attempts to ignore it fail, Lenny starts to unravel. Worse, she starts to remember... Equal parts heartbreaking and heartwarming, Kerryn Mayne's stunning debut is an irresistible novel about truth, secrets, vengeance, and family lost and found, with a heroine who's simply unforgettable.
