Synopsis
'The Danish author is back on form in this literary thriller'
Selected as a Book of the Year in 2017 in the Mail on Sunday
SUSAN SVENDSEN HAS AN UNUSUAL TALENT. She is an expert in finding out secrets. People feel oddly compelled to confide in her and unwittingly confess their innermost thoughts. Her whole life, she has exploited this talent, but now her family is in jeopardy and there is a prison sentence hanging over her head.
Then Susan gets a timely offer from a former government official: use her power one more time and have all charges dropped. To get her life back in order, she must track down the last surviving members of a secret think tank, the Future Committee, and find out the details in this committee’s mysterious final report. But there are some powerful people determined that the report is never revealed.

About the Author
Peter Høeg followed various callings—dancer, actor, fencer, sailor, mountaineer—before he turned seriously to writing. He is the author of The History of Danish Dreams and Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow, which received universal acclaim and was an international bestseller.
Review
"An artfully written, exuberant thriller with a mercurial and interesting central character" - Barry Forshaw - Guardian
"It's a rare treat to read a book by the far-from-prolific Danish author Peter Høeg. . . His latest novel is an offbeat futuristic thriller. . . the challenges Hoeg sets his readers are well worth taking on" - - Express
"A well-tuned and clever femi-thriller." - - Politiken
"A continually surprising conspiracy thriller." - THRILLER OF THE WEEK - The Mail on Sunday
"Peter Høeg is back. And better. And with a novel that is both a thriller, a social critique, and existentially provoking – and on top of that, wonderful and funny." - - Dagbladenes Bureau
