A Tatler Sizzling Summer Read
Spectator Best Books of 2015
Shortlisted for the Guardian's Not the Booker Prize
'Intense, impressive... Told with force and bracing directness... It's a book that smashes into you' Guardian
'Both disturbing and ultimately uplifting . . . the images she conjures up are so subversively creepy they haunt you for days' Spectator
'Deserves major attention' New York Times
Pilgrim Jones doesn't belong here.
She belongs in the cities of Europe, by her handsome husband's side.
But here she is, in a village on the edge of Africa.
No one knows why she is here and what she is hiding from. And she is not going to tell them - about her husband's betrayal, or the children she killed in a crash.
But two men from Pilgrim's past are coming to find her - two men with very different motives.
