Stephen Lewis, a young children's author, lives in London with his wife Julie and three-year-old daughter Kate. His life changes dramatically when Kate disappears in a supermarket. This event triggers a crisis between Stephen and Julie and provokes a deep reflection on parenthood and certainties that are never verified. Set in a near future with a political satire, McEwan achieves a masterpiece of British narrative.
