Gabriel Blackstone has an unusual talent. A computer hacker by trade, he is also able to enter the minds of others. But he uses his gift only reluctantly - until he is contacted by an ex-lover who begs him to find her step-son, last seen months earlier in the company of two sisters. And so Gabriel visits Monk House, a place where time seems to stand still, and where the rooms are dominated by the coded symbol of a cross and circle. As winter closes in, Gabriel becomes increasingly bewitched by the house, and by its owners, the beautiful and mysterious Monk sisters. But even as he falls in love, he knows that one of them is a deadly killer. But which one? And what is the secret they are so determined to protect?

Martin Amis first wrote about September 11 a week later in a piece for "The Guardian beginning", ‘It was the advent of the second plane, sharking in low over the Statue of Liberty: that was the defining moment’. And he has kept returning to September 11, in essays and reviews, and in two remarkable short stories, `In the Palce of the End` and `The Last Days of Muhammad Atta`. All are collected here, together with an expanded account of his travels with Tony Blair in 2007 - to Belfast, to Washington, and to Baghdad and Basra. `We are arriving at an axiom in long-term thinking about international terrorism`, he writes: `the real danger lies, not in what it inflicts, but in what it provokes. Thus by far the gravest consequence of...

The stories within "Second Variety" were written between 1952 and 1955, while America was in the grip of McCarthyism. The concerns of the time are reflected in stories such as "Second Variety", which tells of an endless war fought by ever more cunning and sophisticated robots, or `Imposter` where a man accused of being an alien spy finds his whole identity called into question. Using his marvellously varied, quirky and idiosyncratic style, Dick speaks up for ordinary people against militarism, paranoia and xenophobia.
