About the book: 
Alex, Eva and Nancy. Three grown-up sisters; each wonderful and messy in their own individual ways. And loved equally by their parents, Vivienne and Patrick.
 
Or so they thought . . . Until on their annual family holiday, Patrick accidentally lets slip that he has a favourite daughter - causing other long-buried secrets to come to light.
 
Set over a single week, but examining the highs and lows that define a family over the decades,  The Favourite  is a story about rivalries and long-held resentments, about loss and grief and blame – and, above all, about love.
