The Heathens thought of themselves as the 1000th best band of all time. Then their tour van crashed, and one of their members died.

Twenty years later, weird things are happening in Dublin, bringing the surviving members of the band together in ways none of them could have anticipated and lifting the lid on mysteries from their shared past.

Experts in a Dying Field is a gloriously sharp, witty and surprising novel about friendship, secrets, the strange workings of grief and guilt, and the joyful alchemy of music, from a writer with a unique ability to access humour and deep emotion.

Sizzles with hope, laughs and the tensions that come from knowing someone in their brighter, younger days and wishing, perhaps, that youve left them there. Nostalgic, darkly funny, and real – perfect for anyone trying to make sense of what it means to have history.JUSTIN MYERS
