A gripping literary thriller about trust, betrayal-and the perfect escape. Tom Smith has always followed the rules. For over three decades, he's counted other people's fortunes behind the marble counters of a Knightsbridge bank. He's the invisible man. Punctual. Precise. Forgettable. But as retirement looms, with nothing more than a modest pension and a cold rented flat near Ealing Common, Tom begins to question the life he's built-and what he's owed. But nothing is ever simple when the stakes are this high. And the past is never quite as buried as it seems. Perfect for fans of: - Taut psychological thrillers with literary depth - Slow-burn heist stories and elegant cons - Character-driven suspense in the vein of John le Carr or Donna Tartt
