Step into nine different worlds with this captivating book. Journey to 1990s Belarus, a place where nothing and no one is quite as they seem, and the stakes couldn't be higher. Explore the plush corridors of a global chemical company as an obituary writer tries to unravel a mystery rooted in a twenty-year-old disaster. Navigate the treacherous underworld of Europe with a truck driver caught in the toxic orbit of a corrupt billionaire and his manipulative wife. Follow a petty criminal and a rookie cop into the shadows of a storied Irish wood, where the secrets of their shared past await. Visit a south coast town where a psychotic killer forces strangers to make the most heart-breaking choice of all. Immerse yourself in a women's prison, where rough justice is the order of the day for a police officer convicted of murder and drug trafficking. Stalk a seafront stage with a Blackpool showman as he shapes and reshapes the narrative of his daughter's most inexplicable act. Flip through the pages of the most twisted self-help book ever to take the world by storm. Or meander through a verdant Irish garden, where flowers run riot, secrets lie buried, and death is never far away.
