When the twins become medical students, a serious accident occurs that somehow seems to happen without damage to either of them, but they cut themselves off from the rest of their family because of it, causing first bewilderment and then anger....

Critic reviews

"The writing is elegant and spare, with never a word wasted or...an iota of sentimentality allowed." ( The Herald)
" The Treacle Well identifies the deep stickiness of families and the powerful tug of their secrets. The reader grows more helpless and more vigilant, while also becoming involved with and fond of the characters Moira Forsyth has breathed into life." (Candia McWilliam)
