Publisher's Synopsis

'Book for book, Swift is surely one of England's finest novelists' John Banville

Sarah is in prison. Every fortnight she is visited by George, the private eye she employed to observe the final stage of her husband's affair.

About the Publisher

Hamish Hamilton

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
