Praise for Daniel Easterman’s writing:
‘There are shades of Graham Greene in the climate of brooding terror which Easterman conjures so very nicely.’ Independent
‘He can weave a web of suspense, laced with historical and mythological references that bait the imagination, satisfactorily embroidered with bullet holes and bloodshed.’ The Times
‘An accomplished writer.’ New Statesman
‘A master of spooky suspense and of the chapter cliffhanger.’ Scotsman
Set in Morocco and the UK, a story of espionage, veiled truths and retribution; and how the sins of our forebears haunt the generations of the present.
1936. Newlyweds Beatrice and Gerard Le Tourneau leave France for Morocco and a new life of wine and roses. They are later joined by Beatrice's widowed sister who marries an expatriate dignitary. As WW2 unfolds and pollutes, the lives of the sisters, their spouses and the locals become entwined with devastating results.
2002. Nicholas Budgeon, a successful Oxford publisher and retired Special Branch detective, learns of his ex-wife's suicide.
He too finds himself in Morocco, retracing the paths of her ancestors in an effort to uncover the truth behind the atrocities that have visited his family.
Daniel Easterman was born in Ireland in 1949. He is the author of thirteen critically acclaimed novels.
