When the Lights Go Out
When the Lights Go Out is Carys Bray's third novel.[1][2][3]

This sense of overwhelming anxiety, of a problem too huge to deal with and yet also too huge to ignore, powers Bray’s When The Lights Go Out, a beautifully realised story of a family falling apart under the pressures of our age.
