The South in Winter

Matthew Baxter was almost there. Almost a writer, almost a lover, almost a traveller. He wrote for the Tread Lightly range of travel guides, he loved his boss and he was about to catch a plane to the south. His job was to give an out-of-season slant to the Italian guide, and he was ready. Almost. For everything wasn`t exactly as it should have been. In fact, nothing was exactly as it should have been. Especially Matthew Baxter.Peter Benson`s new novel is a story of (almost) unrequited love and a meditation on the possibility of redemption. It`s also a tour of southern Italy, and aims to prove that although some people say “Never go back”, some people don`t know what they`re talking about.
