Description
Everyone is thinking about Julius King. For comfortable, long-married Hilda and Rupert, he is a mystery. For Morgan, Hilda's tormented sister, he is an obsession. For Morgan's abandoned husband, Tallis, he is the source of ruin. For Simon and Axel, deeply in love, he stirs up jealousy and unease. What is Julius thinking about? He's thinking about Hilda, Rupert, Morgan, Tallis, Simon and Axel, and they will not all survive his malevolent attention. 'The most important novelist writing in my time' A. S. Byatt 'Murdoch's art was expansive, non-autobiographical and insistently inventive' Daily Telegraph 'Above all, she was a consummate story-teller, prodigiously inventive and generous' Independent WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY GARTH GREENWELL
