Jacket design and illustration by Barbara de Wilde. keywords: Literature England. FROM THE PUBLISHER-From the acclaimed author of Brazzaville Beach and The Blue Afternoon, a new novel, set in present-day London, which demonstrates the superbly plotted storytelling that has earned William Boyd his reputation as a writer whose ' eccentric wit and restless intelligence exert a powerful appeal' (New York Times Book Review). One cold winter's morning, Lorimer Black-insurance adjuster, young, good-looking, on the rise-goes out on a perfectly ordinary business appointment, finds a hanged man and realizes that his life is about to be turned upside down. The elements at play: a beautiful actress glimpsed in a passing taxi. an odd new business associate whose hiring, firing and rehiring make little sense. a rock musician who is losing his mind-and a web of fraud in which virtually everyone Lorimer Black knows has been caught and in which he finds himself increasingly entangled. Boyd at his urbane and mesmerizing best. inventory #25885.
