A breathtakingly visceral psychological thriller from the author of Surface Tension, which Booklist—in a starred review—praised as "intelligent, original, stylish, ambitious, and brilliantly etched."Russell Celyn Jones is the author of five previous novels; he is a regular reviewer for the London Times and a former Booker Prize judge.

English

"Ray Greenland has a beautiful wife, two lovely children, a good job—and a terrible secret….This is, on one level, a brilliant psychological thriller, so tightly plotted that it's hard to put down. But Celyn Jones achieves more than this. Beautifully and allusively written, the novel is a 21st-century Great Expectations that touches on the idea of ruptured childhood innocence and the alarming fact that we may never really know the people we love…one of the most readable novels of the year."  —The Daily Mail
