In an absorbing mystery thriller, a teenage girl with a past arrives in a city: new name, new identity, new foster family. She has chosen the city herself, and is fascinated by its harmony and beauty, but is clearly in fear of discovery. She is nursing a secret from her early childhood, a secret that produces new terrors for her the moment she fears her identity has been spotted. A parallel narrative tells of a young architect's apprentice, Zak, in 1750 - working with Jonathan Forrest, a man obsessed with past Druidic mysteries anda new architectural vision for the city. Heplans to create the world's first circular terraced street, the King's Circus - aplan greeted withscorn and derision.Zacsoon realises there's morethan just obsession with an architectural vision;there is some secret associated with building a hidden chamber in the centre of the Circus. But Zac himself has his own confused and highly destructive agenda ... These narratives are framed by thevoice of Bladud -mythical first builder of the city, destined to die in trying to fly. And ultimately his narrative bringsall together in a clever andbrilliantly intriguingclimax." |
