'You will be hooked within a page. . At her greatest, Waters transcends genre: the delusions inAffinity (1999), the vulnerability inFingersmith (2002), the undercurrents of social injustice and the unexplained that underlie all her work, take her, in my view, well beyond the capabilities of her more seriously regarded Booker-winning peers.

Produktinformation

It is 1922, and in a hushed south London villa life is about to be transformed, as genteel widow Mrs Wray and her discontented daughter, Frances, are obliged to take in lodgers. Lilian and Leonard Barber, a modern young couple of the 'clerk class', bring with them gramophone music, colour, fun - and dangerous desires. The most ordinary of lives, it seems, can explode into passion and drama . . . A love story that is also a crime story, this is vintage Sarah Waters. 'Another wild ride of a novel . . . magnetic storytelling' Tracy Chevalier, Observer 'Sumptuous . . . the writing is impeccable. A joy in every respect' Lionel Shriver, New Statesman 'You will be hooked within a page . . . the apotheosis of her talent . . . I have tried and failed to find a single negative thing about it' - Charlotte Mendelson, Financial Times 'An unsurpassed fictional recorder of vanished eras and hidden lives' - Peter Kemp, Sunday Times A New York Times Notable Book of the Year
