Author:Richard Marsh
It changes its shape at will. It compels others to do its bidding. It inspires terror in all who look on it …
Eminent politician Paul Lessingham is the toast of Westminster, but when ‘The Beetle’ arrives from Egypt to hunt him down, the dark and gruesome secret that haunts him is dragged into the light. Bent on revenge for a crime committed against the disciples of Isis, the Beetle terrorizes its victims and will stop at nothing until it has satisfaction.
Six people’s worlds are turned upside down by murder, mesmerism and human sacrifice as they struggle to save their sanity and above all, their lives.
This gritty love story is compelling reading
—— SunSurprisingly wonderful
—— MirrorShe is able to create intimacy brilliantly...Davey's eye wanders appreciatively over physical objects, while sounds, colours and shapes are all beautifully observed.
—— Time OutSubtle and challenging...attempts something radical with the fictional form: it eludes novelistic norms in favour of something more like life
—— GuardianDavey is a deft observer of the inequalities of nature that exist within families
—— Daily TelegraphIt’s the routines of everyday living that Davey so vividly records; her complicated characters are never wholly likeable and, as life flows on, she contrives no neat, tidy endings
—— Val Hennessey , Daily Mail
