Summary
For fans of Nick Harkaway and Scarlett Thomas comes the dazzling second novel by the Desmond Elliott long-listed author of The Weightless World.
How good are people? Let me tell you, Dee: people are as good as the pair of eyes they believe is on them....
When Claudia Talwar is called to meet a mysterious visitor in the reception of her Manchester office block, she can't believe her eyes. It's Samson Glaze, former hippy turned internationally famous entrepreneur, and the 15-years-absent father figure of her youth. It doesn't take much for Samson to convince her to help find his son, Reggie Glaze, who's got into a bit of trouble: namely, he's joined a group called Tarantula who wear black armbands and seem obsessed with 'the next world'.
Before she knows it, Claudia finds herself swept into a dark adventure of solar power, a hammer-wielding assassin, and the end of our world....
Critic reviews
"Trevelyan's prose is wholly readable, with wonderful, concise details that conjure full moments in perfect little capsules." (Dublin Inquirer)
