The Other Side of Night begins with a man named David Asha writing about his biggest regret: his sudden separation from his son, Elliot. In his grief, David tells a story.
Next, we step into the life of Harriet Kealty, a police officer trying to clear her name after a lapse of judgment. She discovers a curious inscription in a secondhand book--a plea: Help me, he's trying to kill me. Who wrote this note? Who is "he"?
This note leads Harri to David Asha, who was last seen stepping off a cliff. Police suspect he couldn't cope after his wife's sudden death. Still, why would this man jump and leave behind his young son? Quickly, Harri's attention zeroes in on a person she knows all too well.
Ben Elmys: once the love of her life. A surrogate father to Elliot Asha and trusted friend to the Ashas.
Ben may also be a murderer.
Compulsively readable and thought-provoking, "The Other Side of Night is one of those rare books that you'll still be thinking about long after the last page" (Jenny Blackhurst, author of How I Lost You).
"An intriguing, fascinating, maddening tale from Adam Hamdy. It’s a murder mystery, a (sort of) love story, an account of extreme romantic obsession and possibly a work of science fiction. It leaves you thrilled and frustrated."
