hungry?For Piglet – an unshakable childhood nickname – getting
married is her opportunity to reinvent. Together, Kit and Piglet
are the picture of domestic bliss – effortless hosts, planning a

a waste for everything to curdle now?Piglet is a searing,
unforgettable and original debut which is taking readers by storm.
