Another Life
'For a long time after we had disappeared from each other’s lives, I couldn’t understand why it didn’t happen. Why we didn’t happen.'
Ever since they met at university, where they were both studying environmental science, Erin has dreamed of a relationship with Dani S. And so when, five years since she last saw her, she discovers that Dani has been found dead in a Russian airport, Erin feels compelled to investigate, refusing to accept the official verdict that her friend committed suicide. As she is drawn into a world of environmental activists and the security services who track them, however, Erin finds herself having to confront the fact that she knows very little about her former friend. When she is eventually put in touch with a young Russian woman who appears to have been Dani's lover, the conflicts in Erin's own personality leave her having to reflect not just on the loss of her former friend but on the loss of her own sense of herself.
