Rezensionen

Much as I enjoyed the author's debut, Booker-longlisted The Many, this tale has a more fluid and accomplished feel. There are similarities in the shadowy undercurrents, and the skill with which threads are woven together. Menmuir has spun a fascinating web that captured this reader's attention fully. I was left sated while still thinking through issues raised. A piercing, thought-provoking and highly recommended read.
