Publisher's Synopsis
A compellingly readable contemporary fantasia set in a vivid New York of the mind. - Kirkus John, part radicalised anarchist, part ticking time bomb, is haunted by a particular story, that of Willow, a 9-year old mute who flees to New York after her brutal rape. The only way his girlfriend, Felicity, can stop the clock counting downis by disentangling the riddle of their pasts , before their entwined futures are blown to pieces. Quentin Canterels second novel presents a collage of voices, dead and alive, in a unique and unnerving novel that experiments with form, structure and language. Truly a mystery shrouded in an enigma.
