Caledonian Road

From the author of Mayflies, an irresistible, unputdownable state-of-the-nation novel - the story of one man's epic fall from grace.

May 2021. London. Campbell Flynn, an art historian and celebrity intellectual, is entering the empire of middle age. Fueled by an appetite for admiration and the finer things, controversy and novelty, he doesn't take people half as seriously as they take themselves. This will prove to be the first of his huge mistakes.

The second? Milo Mangasha, his beguiling and provocative student. Milo inhabits a more precarious world and has experiences and ideas that excite his teacher. Over the course of an incendiary year, a web of crimes, secrets, and scandals will be revealed, and Campbell Flynn may not be able to protect himself from the shattering exposure of all his privilege really involves. But then, he always knew: when his life came tumbling down, it would occur in public.
