The Secret History meets Saltburn in this captivating and darkly seductive tale of art, obsession and the perilous cost of reinvention.
'Lucien is thrilling in every way—the propulsive narrative, the knife-sharp prose, the nuanced and multi-faceted characters, the unflinching exploration of class, ego, art, and authenticity ... an utterly original and deeply affecting novel.' Bret Anthony Johnston

As their underhand methods draw them into a dangerous game of deceit, Lucien's behaviour grows more erratic. Is Lucien all that he seems, or does his charismatic façade conceal something much more sinister?
The Secret History meets Saltburn in this captivating and darkly seductive tale of art, obsession and the catastrophic power of privilege.
