The Light of Day by Graham Swift
On the anniversary of a life-shattering event, George Webb, a former policeman turned private detective, revisits the catastrophes of his past and reaffirms the extraordinary direction of his future. Two years before, an assignment to follow a strayed husband and his mistress appeared simple enough, but this routine job left George a transformed man. Suspenseful, moving, and hailed by critics as a detective story unlike any other, The Light of Day is a gripping tale of murder and redemption, as well as a bold exploration of love and self-discovery. This powerful novel signals yet another groundbreaking achievement from Graham Swift, the author of the Booker Prize-winning novel Last Orders.Swift, author of the bestselling MOTIVATION series (parts 1–3), has had his work highlighted on a variety of websites and in stories ranging from MilwaukeeBlackInfo.com to UrbanReviewsonline.com. He began freelancing work for journals such as Code 414, a quarterly publication in his hometown of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, because he was not satisfied with exclusively non-fiction writing. Swift is best recognized for his streetwise literary style, in which he tells stories that depict life in an inner-city urban setting. His passion for psychology, along with a thorough understanding of street life, provides for an superb portrayal of the life and its characters.
