Our Book of the Week, Claire Fuller's Unsettled Ground, has just won the 2021 Costa Novel Award. 

When their elderly mother dies suddenly, 51-year-old twins, Jeanie and Julius are entirely unprepared for life without her in their rundown, rural cottage. Raised in isolation away from the complexities of the modern world, within days they find themselves facing eviction and a landslide of debt, as the web of secrets their mother wove around them, since the death of their father 40 years ago, threatens to tear apart.
