Last Good Man

Duncan Peck is new to the village. He has come from the city, where civilisation has broken down, where the fires are always burning; but out here on the moors there is community, and order, and safety. Under the shadow of a great wall that cleaves the hillside, the people live an honest life; and if there's any trouble, they have a way to settle it.


A troubling, uncanny book about fear and atonement, responsibility and justice, The Last Good Man dares to ask, what makes people good? And whose job is it to answer that question?
