'Powerful...relentless...gripping' The Times
For Robert Jacklin - packed off without warning to boarding school in Zimbabwe - everything is terrifyingly new. Branded an outsider from the moment he opens his mouth and unable to decode the subtle power struggles of the classroom, he longs for the safety of his old life in England. And then he meets Ivan. Clever, cunning Ivan, who offers him not only friendship, but power too. As Robert is drawn slowly into Ivan's destructive web, he begins to question things he'd always held true and, as Ivan's grip tightens, he finds himself caught up in something far more dangerous than he could have imagined.
'This bleak, ferocious debut is a powerful, devastating read' Guardian
'A provocative story, powerfully written...all the heat and intensity of an African nation in flux burns on every page' Scotsman
