Description

Dana sits in a courtroom with her legs shackled as a long list of charges is read out, many of them dangerous. But the panic that grips her is not because she has been caught. She knows there has been a terrible mistake - she didn't commit any of these crimes. As Dana and her lover Bridger set out to clear her name and find the person who is living a blameless life of criminal excess at her expense, they begin to test the life they have built together to its limits.

Reviews

'Wonderful ... a truly wild read' Daily Express 'Darkly humorous depictions of how any person can be victimised by identity thieves' Sunday Times '[Boyle] is unashamedly an entertainer, peerless in his ability to swing between high and low culture' Time Out 'Talk Talk stands out as nothing short of an uncomfortable masterpiece - as simultaneously overwhelming, treacherous, beautiful and boiling over with hellacious revelation as its ultimate subject: life in twentieth-century America' Los Angeles Times
