'Ingenious and compelling' THE TIMES, BOOKS OF THE MONTH
'A fascinating and assured debut' THE GUARDIAN
'Mind-bendingly clever and utterly gripping' DAILY MAIL

 

It's 1962 and physics student Grace Pulansky believes she has met the man of her dreams, Robert Jones, while serving up slices of pecan pie at the local diner. But then the FBI shows up, with their fedoras and off-the-rack business suits, and accuses him of being a bomb-planting mass-murderer.

Finding herself on the run with Jones across America's Southwest, the discoveries awaiting Gracie will undermine everything she knows about the universe. Her story will reveal how scores of lives - an identity-swapping rock star, a mourning lover in ancient China, Nazi hunters in pursuit of a terrible secret, a crazed artist in pre-revolutionary France, an astronaut struggling with a turbulent interplanetary future, and many more - are interconnected across space and time by love, grief, and quantum entanglement.

Spanning continents, centuries, and dimensions, this exquisitely crafted and madly inventive novel - a triple-disk, concept-album of a book - is the perfect immersive read for fans of David Mitchell, Emily St. John Mandel, Neil Gaiman and Margaret Atwood.

 

'A book designed to be more than the sum of its parts, and one that achieves that because love is the thing that binds it together. Vitally fresh' DOMINIC NOLAN

'It's as if he's written four terrific and totally unique books and folded them together. Wonderful prose, worthy of devouring once and reading again twice.' THOMAS JANE

'With strong echoes of David Mitchell, Haruki Murakami or Emily St John Mandel...One for the ages.' CRIME TIME

'By turns mystifying and heart-breaking, Cole Haddon's mad romp through the universe mixes magic, philosophy, action and metaphysics. Fasten your seatbelt...but don't look away.' NICHOLAS MEYER

'A trans-dimensional, kaleidoscopic mystery-box of a novel.... wholly and riotously original. A tour de force.' PETER HO DAVIES
