'Has the drive of a thriller but the imagery of a romance ... This is a book that is hard to set aside; it demands to be read late into the night with eyes burning and heart racing' * Val McDermid * ‘A document of persecuted love ... perfect' * Independent * ‘Gently exploratory, genuinely moving' * Mail on Sunday * ‘An original, honest novel, a remarkable imaginative achievement by any standard ... compelling' * Financial Times *
