Haunting novel about time and identity set in post-war 'fast set' Britain. A brilliant new novel that is quite different from the wonderful Ferney but which has some of the same qualities. Memory and coincidence play a strong part as the narrator, himself trying to escape a passionate relationship, endeavours to piece together the remarkable life of the man who used to own an old trunk, stuffed with letters, bought in a street market. Racing driver, lover, officer, but maybe not gentleman, con-man, liar, thief -- as the fascinating portrait of the trunk's owner evolves, so the narrator is drawn deeper and deeper into a story with strange connections to his own life.

Industry Reviews

Praise for Ferney: `A story of love and self-discovery that resonates across the ages'Nicholas Evans, author of The Horse Whisperer `The book grips... It belongs to the unputdownable, so goodbye sleep. I love it... the whole story sang'Mary Wesley `The book is a lovely puzzle, exploring landscape and the lives that shape it, and a profound comment on the way each generation adapts to change. An ambitious and enthralling novel with distinct echoes of Hardy'Mail on Sunday
