Condition: Brand New Format: Paperback (Film Tie-In Edition) ISBN: 9781837262328 Publisher: Canongate Books Age Range: Adult (18+) Overview: The Radleys is Matt Haig's darkly funny, razor-sharp novel about a suburban family with a secret: they are vampires. Set in the English village of Bishopthorpe, this Sunday Times bestseller mixes horror, comedy and family drama with real emotional depth. This brand-new paperback is the film tie-in edition, published to coincide with the screen adaptation starring Damian Lewis and Kelly Macdonald, ideal for fans of witty, character-led supernatural fiction. About the Book: Peter and Helen Radley are, on the surface, an unremarkable middle-class couple raising two teenagers in a sleepy English village. They attend dinner parties, worry about the neighbours, and try their best to fit in. What nobody knows — not even their own children, Clara and Rowan — is that the Radleys are vampires, living under a strict regime of abstinence, avoiding blood, sunlight and anything that might expose their true nature. When Clara is violently attacked walking home from a party, her instincts take over in ways she never knew possible, and the family's carefully maintained facade begins to crumble. As secrets spill out, Peter and Helen must confront choices made decades earlier, while Clara and Rowan reckon with an inheritance neither asked for. Haig uses the vampire premise not for gore, but as a clever lens on repression, identity and the compromises families make to appear normal. The result is a novel that is by turns hilarious, tense and surprisingly moving, populated by characters who feel painfully real even as they battle very unreal urges. Fans of Haig's later bestsellers, including The Midnight Library and How to Stop Time, will recognise the same warmth and wit here. Key Benefits: Written by Matt Haig, the Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author of The Midnight Library.

Film tie-in paperback edition, now adapted into a major film starring Damian Lewis and Kelly Macdonald.
