Description
Leo Roslin knows that he's running out of time. He can feel his body breaking down and dreams and visions seeping into his waking life blurring the line with reality. He sees a runner standing still in the air, a hawk that seems fixed in the sky, and finally a girl who has died. Ishiguro's Never Let me God meets The Catcher in the Rye in a story of love that is also a thriller. A tale with a dark revelation at its heart.
