But she doesn’t know the secrets they hide, and she doesn’t understand that they are what is holding Iris together. Her attempts to help only add to the friction between them, and with problems of her own to deal with, Julia leaves Iris to her fate. Iris’s friend Lenny is more sympathetic, but now he has disappeared too.What will it take for Iris to realise that the most precious things in her life are not the belongings that fill her house? And left alone, how can she possibly clear the house in time?Precious Things is a story about secrets and the damage they can cause. Follow Iris as she is forced to look back and face her past in order to move forward.
