Curtain Call
by Graham Hurley

Two desperate journeys. One unscripted finale. A mesmerizing contemporary thriller.

Thirty-nine-year-old Enora Andressen is a successful actress and a woman in her prime. But for how long? Tests have revealed an aggressive brain tumour that could kill her.

Already struggling with the wreckage of her marriage and a strained relationship with her teenage son, Malo, she hasn’t anticipated the appearance of investigative journalist Mitch Culligan on her doorstep. Mitch is writing a book about entrepreneur and one-time drug baron Hayden Prentice – a multi-millionaire who once crossed paths with Enora, and whom Mitch believes has helped fund the push to take the UK out of Europe. Mitch is determined to expose the murky swirl of politics, power and influence around Brexit – but in order to do so, he needs Enora’s help . . .

Enora must confront her past while facing a deeply uncertain future. Can she survive near-impossible odds?

Reviews

This is a very strong series debut … Hurley’s writing style is economical, and he lets us discover the substance of the character as we move through the story. An intriguing start to a promising new series from a writer with a proven track record

Booklist
