"I love this novel. I got a copy and can't take my nose out of it. Bulgakov meets Flann O'Brien and Philip K. Dick." - Malachi O'Doherty
Set in the US on 9/11, Through Hollow Lands tells the story of George Bailey, a charming but feckless opportunist who finds himself trapped in Las Vegas.
He is followed there by Lou Plutus - his boss and a pornographer - from whom he has stolen a Kompromat video of great importance to the Russian mafia.
George un-expectantly encounters Jaffe Losoko there, a naive, young Ethiopian woman whom he wronged six years before. She now works in the Vegas sex trade.
To escape, George must face his Russian pursuers - the terrifying Triptych - head on and make amends to Jaffe. Beset by angels and demons, truth-tellers and liars, he must pay for the sins of his past in order to find salvation beyond Vegas.
Through Hollow Lands is the author's compelling second novel, following the critically acclaimed White Church, Black Mountain.
Genre: Mystery
