From its show-stopping opening scene, Keevil's tightly plotted page-turner is full of momentum and unforgettable characters. Moving, profound and ultimately joyful, it turns on an exceptionally clever twist and is as revealing in its psychological acuity as it is in its portrait of organised crime.
A gripping, stylish thriller set in London and Prague, in which a recently widowed young woman embarks on a high-stakes mission involving some truly dangerous people, and finds the road back to meaning and to life from a place of profound grief and shock. If she makes it back.
