Synopsis

When Harry begins to receive tormented letters from his childhood friend Agnes, a struggling sculptress, it reawakens his past. Harry begins to seek out Agnes, believing he can help her. After all he was the only one closest to understanding the mysterious source of her art. Ten years after her death, faced with a young, soulful girl reminiscent of Agnes, Harry feels trapped, threatened and chastened. Agnes' story encompasses his own youth, the horrors of the Holocaust, and the breadth of the American dream.

If you're looking for a hot tip for those book of the year shortlists, try this arresting novel, with its winning blend of haunting plot and power-packed language. LIVERPOOL ECHO The voice that Klavlan gives Harry- wise-cracking and pragmatic- makes Agne's tale especially poignant. THE TIMES Klavan writes with... style and yet continually plays on the emotions with all the finesse of a master musician. NORTHERN ECHO His prose is continually engaging and has that overflowing feeling only the best books and movies have. OBSERVER
