When the bestselling crime writer lost her five-week-old son, she searched for help in books. But discovered that there are no neat, labelled stages for grief, or crash grief-diets to relieve us of our pain. Grief is universal, but it’s also as unique to each of us as the person we’ve lost. It can be overwhelming, exhausting, lonely, unreasonable, there when we least expect it and seemingly never-ending. She shares her 18 compassion assurances that helped her find the way forward. Perfect for anyone who has experienced or is experiencing loss and grief.
