Аннотация:
Leaving has always come naturally to Eva Elliott. The daughter of a pilot, she spent her childhood leaving schools and cities. Now an adult, she enjoys the thrill of saying goodbye much more than the butterflies of a first smile or kiss. There's just so much more potential in walking away, and Eva has always had a dangerously vivid imagination. During a rainy summer in Soho, when a golden eagle escapes London Zoo to prowl the city and a burst water pipe causes her boyfriend to move in with her uninvited, it become clear to Eva that endings just aren't as easy as they used to be. While she becomes increasingly obsessed with the unearthly goings-on in a lap-dancing club opposite her office, a beguiling new friend appears around Soho armed with a conspiratorial smile and an unsettling secret.
