Gaveston is a journey into the dark heart of obsession and sexual politics by one of the rising stars of contemporary British fiction.
When Gaby Harvey, daughter of media magnate Sir Edward Hamilton Harvey and research student at the prestigious St Dunstan's College, first sets eyes on Piers Gaveston, she immediately senses danger. Aloof, narcissistic and devastatingly attractive, Gaveston's charms still prove irresistible to Gaby and as he works his way through the London media world, so he works a way into her affections, with devastating consequences.
'Stephanie Merritt's deliciously dark dbut novel has an unusually erudite cast of characters . . . The glamorous life that these characters enjoys suggests, in the most enjoyable way, an episode of 'Dallas' co-written by Iris Murdoch and David Lodge, and directed by Ingmar Bergman.' New Statesman
