The Night Watch by Sarah Waters
The Night Watch is the extraordinary story of four Londoners: Kay, who wanders the streets in mannish clothes, restless and searching… Helen, who harbours a troubling secret… Viv, a glamour girl, recklessly loyal to her soldier lover… and Duncan, an apparent innocent, struggling with demons of his own. Moving back through the 1940s, through air raids, blacked-out streets, illicit liaisons and sexual adventure, to end with its beginning in 1941, this is an astonishing novel.
