A chef, a portraitist and a barber are considered hostage in a bloody coup to overthrow their supervisor, the President. These are in a sparsely-furnished room, in a castle high above a nameless capital city. Significantly below them, chaos tears through the roads. The chef's girl, the portraitist's better half and the barber's enthusiast watch their men from the shadows. In such chaotic times, romantic human relationships are as dangerous as political ones. As the old order collapses, so does indeed the network of secrets and is situated that hid the brutal truth about their own dark passions. Sketching her visitors masterfully on the novel's destructive climax, Ceridwen Dovey discloses how humanity's most atavistic impulses - vanity, obsession and vengeance - seethe, relentlessly, underneath the veneer of civilization.
