About this listen

A breathtaking new novel, perfect for fans of Saltburn

Tommo has just started at a new school—a training ground for the Scottish elite—when his friend Johnnie's brother is found dead in a Land Rover on a Highland farm. There's a shotgun at his feet. Nobody seems clear about what has happened, least of all Tommo.

A child of the middle class, and with new independence thrust upon him, Tommo finds himself invited into fading crumbling houses. It's the early nineties and this elite is struggling for relevance. Alienated from the mainstream, and running low on inherited wealth, his peers have retreated into snobbery and fatalism. Half-remembered traditions mix with decadence and an awful lot of small dead animals. And sometimes, not just animals.

Awed by their poise and seduced by their hedonism, Tommo gradually becomes aware of sinister currents beneath the surface and a suppressed rage that threatens to explode into violence.

Hugo Rifkind is brilliant on Times radio and as a Times columnist and this novel reveals another dimension. I finished the audiobook in two sessions showing how seductive the story line was . Anyone who has experienced difficulties fitting in with an unfamiliar culture will probably identify with the narrator’s character. The choice of narrator is inspired: a Rifkind sound-alike who seemed to inhabit Tommo perfectly

Humorous fiction to rival the work of Tom Sharpe

This has to be my book of 2024 (so far) and it is going to be very hard to beat.

Outstanding from every view point.

Too much biography. Took too long to get to the real edgy stuff. Too much wasted time partying and drug taking for sustained interest.

A little dreary

Extremely good narrator. Growing up in Scotland amongst the grouse set. Well worth a listen.

Scotland the brave

Coming of age tale in a very quirky backdrop, written in the same style as Hugo’s humorous columns. Really enjoyable light read.

Humorously written page turner
