Review
Mitchell succeeds in the almost impossible task of rendering Haines's acerbic, antagonistic, but always fascinating lyrical style in fiction... --Vulpes Libris, June 2009

Highly recommended
Product Description
A writer is invited to the stunning new rural retreat of `Britpop godfather' Luke Haines.
However, in more ways than one, the invitation is not what it seems. Rather than capturing the essence of his new subject, as the writer imagines, he will himself end up as a `spider underneath the glass'.
This genre-bending leap of the imagination by author Tim Mitchell takes us on a thrilling and sometimes disorientating journey into the world of a great song writer, and ultimately into very lair of his dark muse.
