The Hidden is a novel of the secrets we keep, the ties that bind us and the true cost of fulfilling our desires.
You're ours, Ben. Now you are. Now you're one of us. In Sparta, southern Greece, a close-knit team of archaeologists dig for the buried traces of a formidable ancient power. A latecomer, Ben Mercer, finds himself drawn to the brilliance and charisma of the group. But there is more to the team than he understands, and Ben must decide where his loyalties lie before the decision is taken for him.
A beautifully paced thriller * Observer *
A wonderful novel * Daily Telegraph *
An elaborate mystery along the lines of The Magus or The Secret History, and a sustained meditation on the special ethics of terrorism in ancient and modern times * Guardian *
Resonant with classical myth, this is a rich, rewarding story of the outsider - the existential loner searching for his place in the world * Daily Mail *
The end is a dark epiphany, truly gripping, touching on anarchy, unearthing a righteous violence that reverberates into a moment that is momentous, cinematic and brimming with horror * The Times *
