Behind The Mask Is Nothing

Stef, an overworked teacher who questions her husband's fidelity, is drawn into a community on a remote Exmoor estate run by the couples counselor and slowly descends into the cult without even realizing it. Meanwhile, her grandmother, who is writing her memoir about the Hitler Youth girls in Berlin with a mixture of guilt and nostalgia, looks on helplessly as Stef is dragged deeper into the group. This scintillating novel is about the abuse of power and the acceptance of this abuse.
