Description
Book SynopsisThe second solo novel from one half of the S.L. Grey writing team - for fans of Black Mirror. In a Britain akin to this one, Vincent Rice falls off a ladder, literally at Petra Orff's feet. They introduce themselves, and he offers to take her to Metamuse, an alternative theatre experience like no other that he won tickets to in a competition he doesn't remember entering. Vincent has a complex sense of home, and immigrant Petra senses a kindred spirit in him. As time goes on, inexplicable occurrences pile on top of one another, connected to Metamuse: certainly more than just a theatre experience. Unquiet dead seem to be reaching into the world to protest injustices both past and present.
Trade Review"
Exposure is a challenge. There is far more to the plot than is articulated. It sends the reader off into other directions of thought before dragging them back to smell the rottenness that underpins this variant of our society. It is not so much a tale but a veritable mine of concepts for others to explore. Metamuse indeed! It does what it says on the tin."

Praise for SL Grey
“The Apartment is a fast-paced, page-turning chiller that gallops towards its ambiguous climax.” Guardian
Praise for Louis Greenberg
“Thoroughly unpredictable, character-driven, quietly clever and illuminating through its spare, exacting prose.” Cape Times on Dark Windows
