Set in 1939, Hamilton's novel minutely observes the seedy, dissolute world of Earls Court pubs as the citizens steadfastly drink to distract themselves from the imminent threat of war. Against this bibulous backdrop, George Harvey Bone worships the cruel beauty, Nettie, until his hopeless desire spirals into madness and murder.
