Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Shortlisted for the CWA Gold Dagger Award and the European Union Prize for Literature 2019."His mistakes are my inheritance. The rotten blood he gave me is the blood I will pass on."For twenty years, Daniel Hardesty has lived with the emotional scars of a childhood trauma which he is powerless to undo. One August morning, Daniel and his estranged father Francis-a character of irresistible charm and roiling self-pity-set out on a road trip that seems a promise to salvage their relationship.They have one shared interest, The Artifex, a children's TV program where Fran works on set, and Daniel has been promised special access to the studio. But with every passing mile, the layers of Fran's mendacity and desperation are exposed, pushing him to acts of violence that will define the rest of his son's life.The acclaimed author of The Ecliptic has written a novel of exceptional beauty about the bond between fathers and sons, and the invention and reconciliation of self-weaving a haunting story of lost innocence and love."A novel written from the gut, and with a correspondingly visceral power. A superbly unsettling account of trauma and cautious recovery."-Sarah Waters, author of The Paying Guests Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
