‘A gorgeous ruin in the shape of a hardboiled noir thriller . . .
What a glorious sunset song’ The Guardian It is three in the
morning when Bobby Western zips the jacket of his wetsuit and
plunges from the boat deck into darkness. His divelight illuminates
a sunken jet, nine bodies still buckled in their seats. Missing
from the crash site are the plane’s black box, and the tenth
passenger. But how? A collateral witness to machinations that can
only bring him harm, Western is shadowed in body and spirit – by
men with badges; by the ghost of his father, inventor of the atom
bomb; and by his sister, the love and ruin of his soul. From the
bar rooms of New Orleans to an abandoned oil rig off the Florida
coast, The Passenger is a breathtaking novel of morality and
science, the legacy of sin, and the madness that is human
consciousness, and one of the final works by a true American
master.
