***SHORTLISTED FOR THE WALTER SCOTT PRIZE FOR HISTORICAL FICTION***
From the bestselling author of Asylum, Trauma and Spider January,
1947. London is in ruins, there's nothing to eat, and it's the
coldest winter in living memory. To make matters worse, Charlie
Grice, one of the great stage actors of the day, has suddenly died.
His widow Joan, the wardrobe mistress, is beside herself with
grief. Then one night she discovers Gricey's secret. Plunged into a
dark new world, Joan realises that though fascism might hide, it
never dies. Her war isn't over after all. 'McGrath has the gift,
the storyteller's gift, to compel attention, so that you gaze rapt
into the fire and listen to the tale unfold.' Sunday Times 'McGrath
is one of the age's most elegantly accomplished divers into the
human psyche . . . a master writer.' John Banville `McGrath is that
rare yet essential thing, a writer who can expose our darkest fears
without making us run away from them.' New Statesman
General
