"Rachel was woken by a painting, or, rather the idea of one. Her first response on waking was anguish such as one felt when torn from any dream rapture and she shut her eyes again, breathing deeply in an effort to return to sleep at once and recapture the dream where she had left off."

From those first few lines, I knew I would love this novel and that I would read Patrick Gale again.
