The Benefactors by Wendy Erskine
Three very different mothers — glamorous Frankie, recently bereaved Miriam, and charity CEO Bronagh — find their lives entangled when their 18-year-old sons are accused of sexually assaulting Misty Johnston, a young woman from a less privileged family. As they use their influence to shield their children, the novel examines class, power and the moral complexities of parenthood in contemporary Northern Ireland.
