If I Let You Go

By turns darkly comic and deeply moving, If I Let You Go by Charlotte Levin is a searing portrayal of a woman coming to terms with loss, and the consequences of taking the wrong path. Every morning Janet Brown goes to work cleaning offices. It calms her, cleanliness, neatness. All the things she's unable to do with her soul can be achieved with a damp cloth and a splash of bleach. However, the guilt she still carries about a devastating loss that happened eleven years ago, cannot be erased. Then, Janet finds herself involved in a train crash and, recognizing the chance to do what she couldn't all those years ago, she makes a bold and brash decision. As news spreads of Janet's actions, her story inspires everyone around her, and for the first time her life has purpose and the future is filled with hope. But Janet's story isn't quite what it seems, and as events spiral out of control, she soon discovers that coming clean isn't an option. Because if Janet washes away the lies, what long-buried truths will she finally have to face?
