I Made You Up Inside My Head

'A tremendous novel with a cool and engrossing narrative voice' William Boyd, author of The Predicament **'Thrums with the momentum of a page turner' Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah, author of Chain-Gang All-Stars 'Addictive' Ledia Xhoga, author of Misinterpretation ' Brilliant . . . A novel about a shocking literary scandal and relationships gone wrong' CJ Hauser, author of The Crane Wife** 'One of those books that make it worth clearing your afternoon to just sit back and lose yourself in the reading of it' Vogue On a sleeper train from London to Edinburgh, a woman and two strangers pass the time by telling stories about their lives. One passenger reveals the truth behind the novel he wrote: he betrayed the confidence of a young man, Hans, by converting his life story into fiction. Intimate details of Hans's life became public knowledge, his trust exploited for the author's own gain. As her cabin-mates reveal that Hans has since disappeared, with foul-play suspected, Alicia becomes gripped by the question of what really happened between the two men. She begins to re-examine her own memories, to try and discern what brought her to this point - and her involvement in the story told that night soon goes beyond a mere observer. I Made You Up Inside My Head questions the stories we tell ourselves and others, and the fine line that separates reality from fiction - all while weaving an engrossing tale of betrayal, loss and guilt.
