The Melody

Alfred Busi, famed in his town for his music and songs, is mourning the recent death of his wife and quietly living out his days in the large villa he has always called home. Then one night Busi is attacked by a creature he disturbs as it raids the contents of his larder. Busi is convinced that what assaulted him was no animal. His words fan the flames of old rumour and new controversy... From the Man Booker shortlisted author of 'Harvest'
