ABOUT
THE BOOK |
| On
7th November, 1974 a young English nanny named Sandra Rivett was murdered in London's
West End. Her employer, Lord Lucan, was named as her attacker. It was widely assumed
he had mistaken her for his wife. Lord Lucan disappeared the night Sandra Rivett
died and has never been seen since. Henry Kennedy lives on a mountain on the other side of the world. He is not who he says he is. Is he a murderer or a man who can never clear his name? And is he the only one with something to hide? Set in Tasmania, Africa and London's Belgravia, The Butterfly Man is an absorbing novel about transformation and deception, and the lengths to which we will go to protect the ones we love. |
