 |summary=Dr Paul Allen is more than happy with his life.  His second wife, Fran, is efficient, a good manager, a good mother to their young twins and not overly emotional as Ellen (Wife No. 1) was.  In fact you could say that his life runs like clockwork, which is just how he likes it.  Paul hates chaos and the unexpected, but he's about to be visited by both.  As the Allens sit in horror watching news footage of the charismatic presidential front-runner being gunned down, there's a knock at the door.  Their real horror is beginning; the FBI believes the son he had with Ellen is the guy who pulled the trigger.

 Grace McCleen's debut novel, ''The Land of Decoration'' paints an original, unsettling, sometimes dark and generally rather wonderful picture. Narrated by ten year old Judith, raised by her father who is a fundamental religious follower of the end of the world is nigh variety, it looks at bullying, both at school and in more general society, faith and the possible rejection thereof and the strength of childhood imagination.
