內容簡介: |
''The scar drew her whole face sideways and even in profile,
with the hideous thing turned away, her face was horribly lop-
sided, skin, features and all, dragged away from the bone. She was
a beautiful girl, a white and golden girl, like moonlight on
daisies, a month ago.'' And yet the men still hover around her, more
out of curiosity than lust, and none more so than the wildly
seductive, dangerous funny man, Honeybuzzard; lithe as a stick of
liquorice, he is the demonic puppet master at the swirling centre
of the tale. ''In a modern day horror story gleaming with perfect
1960''s detail, she performs a double act, conjuring up just the
right amount of unease and perversion beneath the idiosyncratic
business of relatively ordinary lives'' THE TIMES
