About this title

Synopsis

Imagine a man who can remember every day of his life.

Imagine that same man at the centre of 20th century events so significant that his take on the world is both unique and startling.

Meet Ruben Miles. Minder to Babe Ruth. British intelligence spy. Serial marriage hombre.

And one of only 50 people on the planet with hyperthymesia (Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory).

Hold on tight. This could get good.

‘A very clever novel … Unforgettable!’ – Mark Liam Piggott, author of Fire Horses

‘A magnificent meander through an old man’s mind’ – Chris Robinson, author of The Renegade
