'A funny serious book that pokes its finger in the stomach of the traditional crime novel' The Times What society chooses to call Daniel Adamson's crime is the extreme fondness he has for women's ears. This preference has led Daniel to commit deliberate murder and involuntary arson, to consort with rent girls, even to sink to autobiography as he languishes in a mental hospital. He believes confession is good for the soul but can he really make us believe that he is an innocent victim of society? A witty but macabre debut that will both amuse and horrify.
