'Tremendous...taut, compelling' WILLIAM BOYD
An exceptional political thriller set in Ukraine from the bestselling author of Booker-shortlisted Snowdrops.
__________________________________
Twelve years ago, Simon Davey prevented a tragedy, and ruined his own life.
Once a senior British diplomat in Kyiv, he lost everything in a lurid scandal. Back in London, he is travelling on the Tube when he sees her...
Olesya is the woman Simon holds responsible for his downfall. They first met on an icy night during the protests in Independence Square.
When Simon decides to follow Olesya, he finds himself plunged back into the dramatic days which changed his life forever.
Set in an arena of political interference, corruption and espionage, Independence Square is a story of the ordinary people caught in the crossfires. It is a story of power, and where it really lies in the twenty-first century.
