The Affair is a standalone short story by Emma Kavanagh, published in 2015 as an ebook. It deals with the fallout of a secret relationship and the way hidden choices can unravel lives. Like Kavanagh’s full-length novels, it is more interested in the psychological and emotional aftermath of events than in action or suspense for its own sake.
For readers already familiar with Kavanagh’s novels, The Affair offers a brief but concentrated example of her style. The short format forces tighter focus, stripping away subplots to zero in on the emotional core of its situation. It makes a good companion piece to her longer work, particularly for readers who appreciate her attention to the inner lives of characters under pressure.
