Summary Note	"When they saw me, men and women alike recoiled, but their fear quickly gave way to fury. I would not harm them to defend myself, and I remained therefore defenceless." Addison Goodheart lives in solitude beneath the city, an exile from a society which will destroy him if he is ever seen. Books are Addison Goodheart's refuge and his escape: he embraces the riches they have to offer. By night he leaves his hidden chambers beneath the city streets and makes his way through a network of underground tunnels and sewers into the central library. And that is where he meets Gwyneth, who, like Addison, hides her true appearance and struggles to trust anyone. But the bond between them runs deeper than the tragedies that have scarred their lives. Something more than chance - and nothing less than destiny - has brought them together in a world whose hour of reckoning is fast approaching ...'The master of our darkest dreams' The Times 'Psychologically complex, masterly and satisfying' New York Times.
