Like nothing else in modern English literature The Spectator
A haunting story of two war veterans, who meet in the quiet English countryside of the north, in 1920.
Living inside the church, one, the narrator, is uncovering and restoring an historic wall painting; the other, Moon, is in search of a lost grave in the field next door.
These two survivors of the Great War, both shadows of their former selves, discover, through the relationship they develop, a shared sense of communication with both the physical and historical landscape, past and present.

In an effort to rejuvenate his flagging career, novelist Ethelred Tressider embarks on a "research trip" to Egypt. No sooner has the cruise on the Nile begun, however, than events quickly unravel: an attempt is made on Ethelred's life; the boat's engine explodes, and a passenger is found murdered. As the boat drifts out of control, suspicion falls on everyone aboard - including Ethelred.
