A private plane cuts through the winter night, somewhere over Greenland. David, a retired executive, sits back in his leather seat, playing solitaire on his phone. In his pocket is a notebook filled with urgent reminders, but he can no longer read his own handwriting.

There will be a stopover in London, dinner with his adult daughter, a meeting in France with an old friend. His final destination: a clinic in Zurich.

A mesmerising portrait of an ageing man's last pilgrimage and his fading mind, from the bestselling author of The Girls and The Guest.
