Productbeschrijving

Iain Banks's classic novel, reissued with a striking new cover

'Apocalyptic is the first word that springs to mind to describe this violent and powerful novel in which Banks once again demostrates his extraordinary dark powers of imagination . . . impressive'
The Times

Hisako Onoda, world famous cellist, refuses to fly. And so she travels to Europe as a passenger on a tanker bound through the Panama Canal. But Panama is a country whose politics are as volatile as the local freedom fighters. When Hisako's ship is captured, it is not long before the atmostphere is as flammable as an oxy-acetylene torch, and the tension as sharp as the spike on the cello . . .

'Currents of dark wit swirl through Banks' writing, enriching its buoyancy . . . and, like Graham Greene, he can readily open the reader's senses to the "foreignness" of places'
Scotland on Sunday
