Autographed Edition.      Two people.   How many deceptions?

Liese Campbell has an engagement for the weekend:   to stay with Alexander Colquhoun, the well-mannered heir of a pastoral dynasty, at his property in western Victoria.    Liese, and English architect in flight from the financial crisis, now works at her uncle's real-estate business in Melbourne.  

Alexander has been looking for a place in the city.  The luxury apartments Liese shows him have become sets for a realationship that satisfies their fantasies  - and helps play her debts.   It's a game.   Both players understand the rules.   Or so she thinks.

Across the ancient landscape they drive at dusk to his grand decaying mansion.  Here Liese senses a change in Alexander, and realises a different game has begun.

The gripping, provocative new novel by one of Australia's finest writers is a psychological thriller for the modern age, one which explores the snares of money and love, and the dark side of erotic imagination.  A trap has been set, but how and why?   And for whom?.
