Resumen del Editor
A BBC BETWEEN THE COVERS BOOKER PRIZE GEM
FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF MOTHERING SUNDAY AND LAST ORDERS, and reissued for the first time on the Scribner list, The Light of Day is both a gripping crime story and a remarkable love story.
On a cold but dazzling November morning George Webb, a former policeman turned private detective, prepares to visit Sarah, a prisoner and the woman he loves. As he goes about the business of the day he relives the catastrophic events of two years ago that have both bound them together and kept them apart.
Making atmospheric use of its suburban setting and shot through with a plain man’s unwitting poetry and rueful humour, The Light of Day is a powerful and moving tale of murder, redemption and of the discovery, for better or worse, of the hidden forces inside us.

"Alive with sensuousness and sensuality...wonderfully accomplished, it is an achievement." (Sunday Times)

Could there be a less interesting storyline and disinterested tone in what is ultimately a story of obsession, jealousy and hate?
And I think I have never hear a more bored, cold reading of a novel, ever. A person within hearing enquired whether I was listening to the monotonous monologue from a tired old documentary..
