An Archive of Happiness is set in the Scottish Highlands over the course of one day during the Avens family's annual get-together.

It's the summer solstice and theirs is a fractured family, broken by arguments, by things said and not said, by a mother who has left and a father who was left behind.

What happens on this day will force them to cleave together to survive and redraw the traditional bonds of family.

Reeder tells a story of loss, fracture and repair, every sentence infused with both clear-sightedness and love.'-Jenn Ashworth'An Archive of Happiness is a poignant, multi-layered exploration of family relationships brilliantly revealed. A haunting story told in exquisite prose.'- Ruth Hogan
