Author's third novel. A fictional account of the life of the late Rudolph Nureyev – the Soviet ballet dancer who defected at the height of the Cold War, partnered Margot Fonteyn and became ballet's first international male superstar. "Like its subject, it spins with virtuoso, charismatic brilliance around a core of wilful mystery." –The Guardian
