"[A] dark tour de force, a morality fable, disguised as a psychological thriller. A chilling little horror story, easily read in one enjoyable gulp....Though there's a faint satiric edge to McEwan's portraits, he uses his psychological insight, as he's done so often before, to create sympathy for some decidedly unsavory people. Indeed, we find ourselves rooting for Clive and Vernon, even as it becomes clear that both of them...are conniving opportunists, willing to use virtually any means necessary to achieve their ends."Ian Mcewan is the author of 'Amsterdam' with ISBN 9780676972177 and ISBN 0676972179.
