Meet Emma Grey - Brisbane Square Library

Join Emma Grey as she shares her latest novel, 'Start at the End'.

About the book

This powerful, emotional, sliding-doors novel from the bestselling author of The Last Love Note and Pictures of You is about love, loss, grief and hope, and asks if it is ever too late to start again.

When Audrey and Fraser tumble into a love story for the ages, theirs is an epic, unbreakable bond – until one tragic moment up-ends everything.

Facing the unimaginable, wrestling with guilt, they're left haunted by 'what-ifs'.

Would their lives still have imploded if they'd done one little thing differently? Where would they be if events had unfolded the other way around?

Start at the End offers hope for those who think they'll never love again.
