'Addictive' Stylist
'Sultry' Elle
'Shimmers with suspense' Daily Mail
'Sizzling' Esquire
Summer in Paris. Leah, bored of tedious dead-end jobs, is intrigued to spot a job advert posted by the famous author Michael Young: 'Writer Seeks Assistant'.
After an unconventional interview, Michael invites Leah to spend summer in the south of France with his family. But as she begins her work transcribing his diaries of his debauched youth in 1960s Soho, the lines of past and present, truth and deceit, begin to blur, and Leah has to question what it is that Michael really sees in her.
A novel that challenges us to both question what we see, and what others see in us.
'A devastatingly compelling new voice in literary fiction' Louise O'Neill
'Devastatingly witty, compulsively readable . . . like Sally Rooney meeting Martin Amis in Paris' Francine Toon, author of Pine
