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?.
