When Ariel Manto uncovers a copy of The End of Mr Y in a second-hand bookshop, she can't believe her eyes. She's read about its author before, and this is his most notorious and rarest book. It is also believed to hold a curse. Anyone who's ever read it, including the author, has disappeared without trace. With Mr Y under her arm, Ariel is thrust into an adventure of faith, physics, love, death, and everything in between.
"Ingenious and original ... A cracking good yarn fizzing with intelligence." Philip Pullman
Absolutely brilliant. So different to anything I have ever read. Could not put it down.
