“The bristling energy of Cacoyannis’s text is its forte, helping it stand out from the crowd, with its tantalizing characters an undoubted highlight.” Publishers Weekly’s The BookLife Prize

36-year-old Londoner Harry is a successful but conflicted painter happily married to Max, a wealthy arts entrepreneur. For the last two years he has been meeting the mysterious Lina just for sex every Wednesday afternoon, behind Max’s back. Because he adores his husband and has no feelings for Lina, Harry imagines that the affair is meaningless and does no harm. But then everything becomes upended when he and Lina are both chosen to be jurors in the same murder trial…

“a convincing and well-orchestrated storyline peppered with lust and intrigue… elegantly fused with a dynamic rhythm that mirrors the passionate affairs that occupy its central characters.” Publishers Weekly’s The BookLife Prize

“readers will find themselves slowly becoming invested in what will happen to these disparate people—who, after all, will wind up with who? Such questions keep the story alive and moving, all the way to its conclusion…. A well-balanced drama about memorable lovers and their uncomfortable secrets.” Kirkus Reviews
