Více o knize
On her husband's death Lady Franklin dropped her friends and wrapped herself in a penitential garment of grief. Two years later, on a visit to Canterbury Cathedral, she impulsively began to unburden her soul to the driver of the hired car. Leadbitter, a lonely, cynical ex-soldier, responded by trying to distract her with tales of his imaginary wife and family. So begins a dangerous game, played by inhabitants of different planets. And in mid-journey the story plunges down a turning where all the sign-posts point to disaster.
