Produktbeschreibung
A new comic, dark, urban story which maps the violent hinterland where mental illness and religious fervour meet. Tells of the struggle for survival in troubled times, tackling schizophrenia, boxing, debt collection, astrology and the occult in a tale of brotherly love.
Sharp, compassionate and darkly comic, this gripping literary thriller shows what happens when the lives of those you care about are suddenly, terrifyingly, at risk. Patrick Farrell¿s life is complex but under control. His work takes him through the streets of South London, repossessing credit cards and searching for missing debtors. And in the evenings he visits his schizophrenic brother, Mike, who stares out of his hospital room window, convinced he¿s being watched. But when Patrick¿s girlfriend introduces him to a new crowd with a strange interest in astrology and the occult, his world is thrown dramatically out of kilter. Robert Dickinson is also the author of The Noise of Strangers.
