Two men with mysterious past lives meet in an English village with dramatic and violent consequences

Jonas Mortensen wants to be liked. Adam Fletcher wants to be forgotten. Jonas, a freewheeling Norwegian, has been living in a quiet English village for years, an eccentric everyone has an opinion about. Then the real owner of his house turns up. Fletcher, a traumatised veteran of the Afghan War, has come to claim his inheritance. The two men live side by side in an increasingly bizarre standoff, until a teenage girl goes missing and suspicion falls on Jonas. As the hunt intensifies, it's clear both men are concealing past lives that won't stay hidden much longer.

'...sometimes beautiful and eerie book which looks as the strangeness beneath modern life in a style reminiscent of Alan Warner or Jon McGregor. The author knows how to peer into the lives of his characters with an unsparing eye, finding the warmth and horror that surrounds us all.'-Alan Bissett; 'Nicely weighed thriller by rising talent.'-Sunday Sport
