The Quiet Part

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Iona Strachan built the machine that prices love. From a hushed Marylebone bureau she scores strangers by how cheaply they can be left - and she has organised her whole life the same way: know the exit before you enter the room, keep the walls bare, put a number on everyone so no one can ever corner you. Daud Çetin reads a building the way she reads a person - fast, from the hinges, looking for where it's been forced. He takes the job re-keying her basement for one reason: to reach a single sealed file, and learn what the firm sold his brother in the last lonely year of his life. He came for a door. She has a number for everyone but him. What grows between a woman who prices everything and a man who won't be priced is tender, exact, and built on a lie each of them is keeping. Somewhere in her machine sits one honest record - and it points straight back at them both. A literary, slow-burn love story about the cost of leaving, and the far higher cost of staying.
