Pretend you can see through the curtain separating your past and future, and consider what that might mean.
Is anything as fascinating as other people? What motivates them, drives them, makes them who they are? And are some people born to be bad? For Clara Oakes, growing up in a family with the darkest of secrets, it seems that life is even more mysterious. In Clara's world, people are to be used, and personal happiness is all that matters.
But then Clara's perception of the world is changed forever. Leaving everything she knows, she finds herself in the slums of India, and is forced to confront adversaries greater than any she ever imagined. In a place where the trafficking of young girls is commonplace, can Clara find the resources she needs to survive? Can those psychopathic traits which have always guided her now be used as a strength? And is she willing to try?
In a story that spans three continents, the reader follows Clara from difficult child to destructive adult.
CLARA is a novel about someone who is very bad, who manages to achieve something amazing.
From the author of the critically acclaimed JOANNA comes another fascinating exploration of a mind locked in a battle with remorseless enemies - both within and without.
