Flight Path

By: E J Pepper

Narrated by: Sebastian Abineri

There is always a before and an after...

Sophie and Miles have a long marriage, twin daughters, a close-knit circle of friends, and a happy home, until an accusation of inappropriate sexual conduct with a pupil blows everything apart. Sophie knows Miles as her husband of 30 years, the father to their twins, and a dedicated teacher. Could he really be a sexual abuser? As the trial approaches, Sophie must ask herself if Miles is merely a bumbling innocent or a scheming manipulator. Flight Path explores the effect that an accusation of sexual assault has on a family. Guilty or Innocent, nobody wins.

Critic reviews

“It’s rare to read a novel that is as gripping as it is subtle. Flight Path is that novel. Buried within the story of a marriage coming undone is a compelling exploration of our moral and sexual confusions - and of one of our worst fears: That of the predator. E. J. Pepper delivers a disquieting, absorbing story. Throughout, she reveals our human frailties and bonds with delicacy and power.” (Alison MacLeod, The Booker prize long-listed author of Unexploded)
