In the hallucinatory light and heat of a Mediterranean island, an English geologist is to inspect a granite quarry on behalf of an Australian client. He has brought along his mistress, rented a sunshade on the beach, pushed wife and family to the back of his mind. But he reckons without the arrival of a woman with a death to avenge. Nor could he have expected a beautiful interpreter more eager to seduce than to explain. Conflicting messages abound. Hard facts prove runny as lava. Until, from the dust and roar of quarry and stonemill, the enigmatic contour of a conspiracy emerges. But the determination to uncover that mystery and prevent further deaths is also the determination to prolong a passion that is tearing this man apart. A menacing deceptiveness lurks and the surface of skin and stone alike. The sharply profiled colour of the beach is as treacherous as the oppressive geometry of mill and gangsaw. In the space of just a few days Peter Nicholson’s life will be as shattered as the fatal fragment of stone that obsesses him.
