  In a nameless country under military occupation, two friends prepare to attend a wedding. The young man is from the occupied region ("This Place"), the woman is from the occupying nation-state ("That Place"). The complicated relationship between these two protagonists with unusual professions—he is a Protest Designer and she is a De-programmer—is tested when, on the eve of the wedding, the occupying power, That Place, formally annexes This Place and declares a curfew. 
   
   
   
  Suddenly finding themselves confined to the same isolated space, the young woman and man try to kill time but inevitably wind up talking about the ways in which the war between their homelands pervades the unexplored and undeniable attraction between them. Will their relationship become another casualty of war? 
   
   
   
  This Place That Place is an evocative novel that functions as a bold allegory for militarized occupations anywhere. This brilliant literary debut provides new ways to think about the intersections between the personal and the political; between occupier and occupied; between the kinds of bonds that endure, and those that have no choice but to fracture.

  'A hilarious romp that I just couldn’t put down.' Katy Brent 
  A sharp, funny and deliciously dark thriller that fans of Katy Brent, Bella Mackie or Killing Eve will love. 
  When your boss is at a conference in a city where there's a suspicious death, it's unlucky. 
  If it happens twice, it's odd. 
  But when she's in the same city at the same time as a third unexplained death . . . 
  Could she be a stone-cold killer? 
  Millie's always known her boss Freya is a psycho – the demanding and ever-changing coffee orders, the cryptic instructions, the apparently expected mind reading and don't even start on the insistence that Millie wears heels . . . All. The. Time. 
  But it only extends as far as exacting office standards. Right? 
  As Freya's assistant, Millie has privileged access to her diary and travel history and when a pattern emerges of men (who seem to have no connection to each other) dying in cities where Freya is travelling, Millie is determined to figure out what's going on. 
  After all, a stone-cold killer could be exactly what Millie needs . . .
