An Onassis-like figure nearing the end of his life throws a lavish party for his daughter. She is pregnant by a man her father disapproves of; he hopes to coerce her into a termination. The story of this fateful party and the lives it affects is an accomplished modern fable from this well-reviewed author, an alumnus of UEA's Creative Writing MA.
It is the summer of 1975. As dawn breaks on a small private island off the Mediterranean coast Marco Timoleon an aging tycoon wakes up to see the final preparations for his troubled daughter's twenty-fifth birthday party. Having found out that she is pregnant by a man he doesn't approve of he secretly intends to persuade her to terminate the pregnancy: the family doctor stands by to perform the operation on the spot. But as the day unfolds his plan is put to the test and comes to an unexpected conclusion.
