In the centre of a 1960s hospital ward sits a curtained-off bed, guarded by a
policeman. In it lies a murderer, hidden from view and likely to die before he
can be hanged for his crime. In the closed, regimented society of the ward, his
invisible presence fractures and rebuilds the way the other patients see the

humanity from the Booker Prize-winning author of G.
