Owen Brown is the last surviving son of America's most famous political terrorist, John Brown, who in 1859 raided the federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia, intending to galvanise the Southern slaves into rebellion. Now Owen tells John's story. This incredible novel recreates pre-Civil War America, when slavery was tearing the country apart, and tells of one man's passage from abolitionist to guerrilla fighter and, finally, martyr. Cloudsplitter is a dazzling, suspenseful, heartbreaking story filled with both intimate scenes of domestic life and chilling violence.

A great American novel' Independent 'It is surely his best novel, a furious, sprawling drama that commands attention like thunder heard from just over the horizon' Time 'An utterly compelling story, a tragedy of near-classic proportions with extraordinary resonances' Financial Times
