Review:
"'One of the most exciting and perfectly executed pieces of fiction that I have ever read' Spectator * 'It haunts you, alike for the queer and mounting suspense and for the masterly portraits of the three men' Sunday Times * 'Few writers have a more exact feel for texture - of a flower, a face, a silence - and it is this that has value,' Spectator * 'H. E. Bates can achieve a quality of lyrical intensity that few contemporary novelists can match' The Times Literary Supplement"
Book Description:
