An affair. Wife, mistress, the man in the middle. Laugh it off only to lie awake worrying later. Is this really happening? When it implodes, what then? The assistant didn't mean to fall in love and become "the other woman." The wife was just venturing her first steps into life beyond the roles of mother and partner when her suspicions about another woman took root. When the well-respected man sinks deeper into mental illness, each person's next move isn't a question of blame alone, but of the ethics of love—of unapologetic decisions and confronting the aftermath.

..". a contemporary and spellbindingly believable take on an old theme that Emma, the great-niece of Virginia Woolf, the queen of the bohemian Bloomsbury Group, hopes will have women everywhere debating the dilemmas of wives and mistresses, loyalty and betrayal, and just who is to blame when love sours."--Daily Mail, "England's Lane looks at the devastating consequences of an affair on the mistress, husband, and wife, and how life pans out beyond it. It is an emotional, thought-provoking, rollercoaster of a read so maybe literary skills can run in the genes!"--Belle About Town, "A harrowing but ultimately hopeful look at the fallout of infidelity and recovery." --Sunday Mirror, "A powerful debut . . . It seems the gift of great storytelling really can run in the genes."--The Daily Mirror, "BLOOMSBURY'S famous pioneering author Virginia Woolf would, I suspect, be rather impressed with her great niece Emma's first novel, England's Lane."--Camden New Journal
