Prentis, clerk in the "dead crimes" division of the London Police department, suspects his boss is trying to drive him crazy. But why? In a race against his own ebbing sanity, he uncovers a trail that leads to his father - a war hero named "Shuttlecock", whose memoirs tell a tale of betrayal.

Review:
‘Serious, moving and often very funny indeed.' (The Observer)

‘An astonishing study of forms of guilt, laced with a thread of detection, and puckering now and then into outrageous humour.’ (The Sunday Times)

‘A superbly written claustrophobic account of power that corrupts private and public life and of guilt that becomes obsession.’ (The Daily Telegraph)
From the Publisher:
Intense psychological thriller from 1996 Booker Prize winner
Intense psychological thriller by Graham Swift, winner of the 1996 Booker Prize, from his backlist, brilliantly rejacketed by Picador in 1997. An unnerving study of power and inadequacy; and the manipulations of family and work life. "One of his generation's finest, with an imagination of rare immediacy and vitality" The Times; "A born storyteller" Daily Telegraph
