`One of our finest living authors . propulsively entertaining' New York Times 'Sly, profound . Electrifying' Observer `Wonderfully strange and alive' Jon McGregor A propulsive, seductive new novel about friendship, exploitation and intimacy from the prize-winning author of Where Reasons End Fabienne is dead. Her childhood best friend, Agn�s, receives the news in America, far from the French countryside where the two girls were raised - the place that Fabienne helped Agn�s escape ten years ago. Now, Agn�s is free to tell her story. As children in a backwater town, they'd built a private world, invisible to everyone but themselves - until Fabienne hatched the plan that would change everything, launching Agn�s on an epic trajectory through fame, fortune, and terrible loss. `Beguiling . A shimmering, unsettling tale of exploitation and manipulation' Daily Mail `Haunting and strange . Li has made her style her own' Tessa Hadley, Guardian `A dazzling, subtle, skilful knockout' Charlotte Mendelson, author of The Exhibitionist
