The Hide

£12.99 Add to basket

Marek Losey's critically acclaimed thriller is set in a bird-hide on the windswept Suffolk mudflats.

 

Inside sits Roy Tunt, a prematurely aged, mildly obsessive-compulsive birder.

With one more sighting — the elusive sociable plover — he will have 'twitched' the entire British List. Tunt has his shortwave radio, packed-lunch and a portrait of his ex-wife Sandra for company.

Suddenly the hide door blows open and a bedraggled stranger - unshaven, edgy and bloodied enters; a fugitive from the storm.  After a tense introduction, the two men discover that they have more in common than initially thought. As they begin to form a close bond news of a police manhunt sets them both on edge driving their fragile relationship to a tragic conclusion.
