The new novel from the Booker Prize-shortlisted author of 'The
Northern Clemency'. Hanmouth: a quiet, picturesque English seaside
town. But behind closed, Georgian front doors and the within the
artisan cheese shop, its residents live lives that are anything
but. When an 8-year-old girl goes missing from the estate on the
fringes of the town, Hanmouth becomes the centre of national
attention. Under the scrutiny of the investigation the
extraordinary individual lives of the community are laid bare: the
passions of a quiet international aid worker; a recently widowed
old woman's late discovery of sexual gratification; and a memorable
party, held by the Bears. Through the apparent civility and
spiralling paranoia a small town, Philip Hensher brings us another
brilliantly funny and perfectly observed slice of contemporary
English life.
