Set against the rise of American finance in the early twentieth century, Trust begins as a sleek novel about a brilliant, aloof financier and his fragile wife. But then the narrati ve fractures. Manuscripts appear. Memoirs contradict. A secretary’s account unsettles everything you thought you knew! This book builds in layers... four versions of events, each shifting the ground beneath the last. It’s destabilising. Who controls the narrative? Who disappears inside it? Trust rewards close reading. It’s a novel that asks you to participate and to question the authority of what’s on the page. For readers who like fiction that plays with form...without losing its emotional impact. Highly recommend!
