When two men meet in a bookshop in Berlin they begin an uneasy friendship. Patrick has a sensational story to tell: a ghostwriter for a Russian oligarch recently found hanged, he says the people who killed his boss are now following him...

A twist on the cat-and-mouse narrative, A Lonely Man is about the search for identity and the elastic nature of truth. As the two men's association hurtles towards tragedy, Robert is forced to confront whether actual events are the only things that give a story life, and if some stories are too dangerous to tell.

A Lonely Man Avis

'A Lonely Man is a remarkable debut; an accomplished and intricately plotted story that manages to be both thrilling and deeply considered. If you're a fan of existential crises, family dramas, Putin-era paranoias, and Bolao-style multiplicities, and want to see them woven into one taut novel, you're in the right place. A lonely triumph.' - Jon McGregor

'A classy page-turner... Unbearably tense, the intricate narrative delivers electric drama as well as thought-provoking reflections on storytelling ethics.' - Mail on Sunday
