A brilliant new novel from Chris Bigsby, author, literary critic and head of the Arthur Miller Centre at the University of East Anglia
An act of terrible violence sets two people runing - one white, one black, one a man whose life has been slipping away, the other a boy, stunned by grief but fighting to survive. Chasing them are men who have nothing but vengeance on their minds and another a law officer always seemingly a step behind, yet desperate to stop the logic playing itself out. But a chase turns into a journey as two people meet across a seemingly implacable gulf, as they travel towards a destiny they can never have imagined. At the heart of this darkness, however, is a surprising beauty, as at the heart of the beauty is a terrifying darkeness.
