Synopsis
The Gift
Published by Currency Press
3 Male 2 Female
When Martin saves Ed's life, everyone knows the debt can never be properly repaid
But Ed is rich and Chloë and Martin have a need so great it seems divine providence when Ed, wanting to show his gratitude, gives the young couple a year to decide on an appropriate gift
Yet when the year is up, surely Chloë and Martin's wish is something no-one could possibly grant?
Wrapped in Joanna Murray-Smith's glinting dialogue, The Gift is a witty examination of our modern moral confusions
