Description

A quietly devastating novel of love and marriage, The Illusionist explores the complexities of relationships through the story of Stella and her husband Martyn. When they first meet, Martyn is just a stranger on a train, but his charm and breathtaking illusions quickly win Stella over, leading to a hasty marriage. As their life together begins, however, Stella starts to feel uneasy about the secrets Martyn keeps hidden away in a locked room. The men who visit their home at strange hours only add to her unease, leaving her with unanswered questions. As she struggles to understand the truth about her husband, Stella's thoughts turn to escape. This beautifully told novel is a nuanced exploration of the twists and turns of family life, revealing the secrets that can lie beneath the surface of even the most seemingly perfect relationships.
