Investigating Mr Wakefield

In tight, breathtaking writing, this thriller explores how surveillance can too quickly become its own addiction. Jack Connolly was a highflying war photographer. His career went into freefall when he manipulated the image of a dead soldier to make it appear that the soldier died a hero's death. At the time, Jack saw it as an act of simple humanity, but the innocent deception cost him his job and the trust of his peers. It taught Jack the all-important lesson; only one thing matters and that's the truth. So when Jack begins to suspect his partner might be leading a double life, he plunges into a search for the truth behind her actions. Jack believes he's shining a light on all that might be hidden. In fact he's journeying into the very heart of darkness. "[Readers] will find themselves irresistible drawn into Jack's paranoid world of self-induced claustrophobia."--Kirkus Reviews.
