Publisher's Synopsis
"This powerful and poignant novel is at once a thriller about the art world and an exploration of the mysteries of human consciousness. It announces the arrival of a bold new fictional voice. A must read." Jason Cowley, Editor-in-chief, The New Statesman
On the face of it, septuagenarian Peter is enjoying an idyllic holiday cruising the Mediterranean with his wife Joan. However, their sight-seeing plans are unexpectedly thrown into disarray when Peter falls ill and then meets the enigmatic Doctor Souter who soon makes it apparent that he is on an entirely different voyage of discovery than the one he had imagined.
People from Peter's past who have haunted his dreams, begin to mysteriously appear on the ship and, with Souter's help, he is forced to confront the devastating events that link him to each of them.
