Released in the US for the first time, this is Paul Kearney's stunning novel of second chances in a world of battle and danger.

John Willoughby is being pulled between worlds. Or he is going mad, &;riding the unicorn&; as his prison officer colleagues would say. It&;s clear to Willoughby it must be the latter. Disappearing in the middle of his prison shift from among convicts, appearing in a makeshift medieval encampment for minutes before tumbling back to the real world, Willoughby believes his mind is simply breaking apart.

He finds no solace at home, with a wife who has grown to dislike him and a daughter who can barely hide her disgust. He&;s realised he isn&;t worth anyone&;s time, barely even his own, and falls into drinking and violence guaranteed to bring about his downfall. Except in this other world, in this winter land of first-settlers he is a man with a purpose, a man upon whom others must rely. Persuaded to kill a King so as to save a people, Willoughby finds that in another world, with a second chance he may be the kind of man he had always wanted to be after all.
