Description Portia Coughlan is the remaining half of twins since her brother drowned when they were 15. Now, aged 30, Portia is obsessed, possessed even, egged on by memories of her dead twin to despise her crippled, rich husband, fine home and three sons. She haunts the edge of the river where her brother lost his life, conducts self-destructive affairs and turns the same fierce loathing on everyone in her life.
