A tense, Ripley-esque novel set in glittering Istanbul for readers of John le Carré and Patricia Highsmith

At the Mexican border, Diana ditches her car and jumps on a bus. Adam walks out of his Athens hotel with just his passport and credit cards. Marco abandons his life in London, leaving no note. At an idyllic spot on the Turkish Riviera, their comrade Chana waits for them.

Also waiting there is Tyler, a private investigator hired by an American billionaire to find his wayward, troubled daughter.

Once the five meet, a train of events is set in motion that will play out along this glittering coast, in the backstreets and renovated palaces of Istanbul and all the way to Cairo. A clash of generations, civilisations and ideologies that will test the young friends’ theory that a handful of collaborators can tilt the axis of the world through a single, striking act.

Commentaires

Lawrence Osborne is the master of well-made, high-class thrillers... good on the nowhereness of places where rich and poor collide, and the unbridgeable gulfs that remain between them (John Self)
A languorous cat-and-mouse thriller with real resonance for our troubled times (John Williams)
Osborne is, for me, the most atmospheric of working suspense writers... Absolutely sensational
There are echoes of both Graham Greene and Patricia Highsmith here, but Osborne’s sense of place and ability create an undercurrent of menace all his own
Osborne excels at evoking atmosphere… a disturbing and melancholic meditation on wealth, alienation and political violence (Justin Warshaw)
A tangle of sexual scheming, familial tensions and international terrorism... an atmospheric and entertaining page-turner (Christian House)
Flawless… chilling… Osborne infuses the languid atmosphere with expertly calibrated tension. This balancing of plot and mood, often in exotic locations, has led to obvious comparisons with Graham Greene. But echoes of J.G. Ballard, another master of unease, are also detectable in the unsettling clarity of the worlds that Mr. Osborne conjures (Anna Mundow)
An unsettling, hypnotic meditation on violence and privilege. Osborne is an unsung master of the literate, thought-provoking thriller (Charles Cumming, author of THE TRINITY SIX)
Osborne’s most menacing novel yet... Osborne paints such a gorgeous picture of louche, jet-set Istanbul, you almost forget to watch your back (Christopher Bollen, author of HAVOC)
Osborne continues to push his brand of haunted escapism into strange, new places... In Children of Wolves, Osborne stays a comfortable step ahead of writers half his age (Joseph Knox, author of IMPOSTER SYNDROME)
