As lonely boys in the Welsh hills Rob Dewar and Jamie Mathewson were as close as friends can be. Both exiled from home and both fatherless, they shared a passion for the mountains. So, when forty years on, Jamie is found dead at the foot of the Great Wall, a vertical, holdless slab of Welsh granite, Rob feels compelled to return. to the place where they had grown up, to confront the past. Theirs is a story that begins with their parents' own, intense relationship: an unlikely three-way friendship of the glamorous predator Caroline, the vulnerable, courageous Diana and the enigmatic Guy Mathewson. The secrets these three share, born in the heat of war and common tragedy, are buried so deep it seems they may never be uncovered.
For THE FALL: 'Wonderful and surprising. An absolute joy to read. Simon Mawer has entered the first rank of British novelists' Beryl Bainbridge
Simon Mawer was born in 1948 in England, and spent his childhood there, in Cyprus and in Malta. He now lives with his wife and two children in Italy, and teaches at the English School in Rome.
