Book description
When Tom Harrington embarks on an affair with the beautiful and
affectionate Emily Hunter, he has no idea how seriously his life will be
affected. At first, it is a straightforward deception, requiring only
the usual expected tasks of lying to their respective spouses and hiding
their relationship from the public eye. Before a year is out, however,
Tom and Emily's love has somehow become the epicenter of a quickly
unraveling web of treachery, jealousy, intrigue, and even murder. As the
facts become muddied and the casualties pile up, Tom tries to make sense
of it all: his own responsibility and guilt; his mistress's secrets and
her husband's slick exterior; his wife's desperation and confusion. But
the more control he tries to take, the less he finds he has, and the
situation spirals ever quicker. Change Here for Babylon is a gripping
story of misplaced emotion and misguided action. It grabs the reader
from the very start, racing along with the suspense of a brilliant crime
novel and moving with grim inevitability towards its surprising
conclusion.
