Aprašymas
'Just occasionally you pick up a novel that is inexplicably gripping from the first page — and Perry's debut is one of them' Sunday TimesOne hot summer's day, John Cole decides to leave his life behind.
The bookshop he runs is deserted, so he shutters it, gets into his car, and starts to drive. Soon he is lost, and when his car breaks down on an isolated country road he goes looking for help, and stumbles into the grounds of a grand but dilapidated house.
Its residents welcome him with open arms — but there's more to this strange community than meets the eye. They all know him by name, and claim to have been waiting for him for days. Who are these people? And what do they intent for John?
Elegant, sinister and psychologically complex, After Me Comes the Flood is the haunted debut novel by the bestelling author of The Essex Serpent.
'A startingly good writer. If she doesn't win the Booker Prize one day, I'll be amazed.'
Sophie Hannah
'A beautiful, dream-like narrative.'
