"A gripping and gloriously treacherous thriller without guide ropes or safety nets. Leave all certainties by the door." Frances Hardinge
A taut thriller about murder, maths and the mind. Peter Blankman is afraid of everything and must confront unimaginable terror when his mother is attacked.
Seventeen-year-old Peter Blankman is a maths prodigy. He also suffers from severe panic attacks. Afraid of everything, he finds solace in the orderly and logical world of mathematics and in the love of his family: his scientist mum and his tough twin sister Bel, as well as Ingrid, his only friend. However, when his mother is found stabbed before an award ceremony and his sister is nowhere to be found, Pete is dragged into a world of espionage and violence where state and family secrets intertwine. Armed only with his extraordinary analytical skills, Peter may just discover that his biggest weakness is his greatest strength.

I enjoyed reading this book, it was a page turner, dark and disturbing and left my pondering the life of the mentally ill and our understanding and treatment of them. Recommended

Told in past and present tense this book throws you something every chapter before ripping it away and leaving your brain foggy. This novel tells a brilliantly clever story that explores things, that never even crossed your mind. I can’t say much without spoiling the book, and trust me you don’t want to be spoiled. But if you’re looking for a true thriller, one that takes you on an intense ride, that has you constantly thinking and questioning and, has great mental health representation, then this is the book for you.
