Guardian Bookshop Notes:

The first novel in ten years from the author of "The Poisonwood Bible". Born in the US and raised in Mexico, Harrison is a liability to his social-climbing mother, and spends most in time on the company of Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo and Lev Trotsky. Inspired by art and revolution, he heads north, hoping to capitalise on the international good will of WWII, but he finds himself caught between political truth and public presumption.

Publisher's description:

Tells a story of identity, loyalty and the devastating power of accusations to destroy innocent people.
