Inhaltsangabe

Barbara Vine's 10th novel, her first since the bestselling and highly acclaimed THE CHIMNEY SWEEPER'S BOY, is about a group of young people who live in a top-floor flat and literally walk the rooftops of Maida Vale. It's narrated by Clodagh, nineteen when the story takes place and already damaged by the death of her boyfriend. When the group gets involved with a family that's on the run from the law, it looks like history is going to repeat itself. An enthralling, chilling novel - a kind of brilliant mirror-image of Vine's acclaimed London Underground novel KING SOLOMON'S CARPET. "She goes for the imagination as a lesser writer would go for the jugular" - Literary Review
