The day after Maud Tarkington turns twenty-one, she must attend the funeral of her favourite brother Lloyd. But instead, Maud is ricocheting around the city, looking for signs of life – will she even make it to Lloyd’s send-off?

Shortlisted for the 2024 Hungerford Award, This Is Where We Say Goodbye is a quirky, bittersweet story about family ties, memory and the unexpected ways we hold it together when everything has fallen apart.
