When his life falls apart after a horrific tragedy, a composer returns to his native France, where he creates an AI machine with his dead wife's voice, with unexpected, devastating consequences…
'A book that will haunt you with what is said and what is left unsaid … simply brilliant' - - Jill Johnson
'Every page contains a mystery, a twist, a doubt. We don't follow the characters, we travel alongside them, turning the pages in an ever-increasing frenzy' - - Jean-Paul Delfino
'Told in an achingly beautiful voice, Double Room drew me into a world full of mystery, music and bittersweet love. Every sentence is poetic, every page is captivating. I could picture, taste and smell every scene…' - - Katie Allen
'A beautiful, heartfelt and sensual story, written with style and grace' - Doug Johnstone

London, late 1990s. Stan, a young and promising French composer, is invited to arrange the music for a theatrical adaptation of The Picture of Dorian Gray. The play will never be staged, but Stan meets Liv, the love of his life, and their harmonious duo soon becomes a trio with the birth of their beloved daughter, Lisa. Stan's world is filled with vibrant colour and melodic music, and under his wife and daughter's gaze, his piano comes to life.
Paris, today. After Liv's fatal accident, Stan returns to France surrounded by darkness, no longer able to compose, and living in the Rabbit Hole, a home left to him by an aunt. He shares his life with Babette, a lifeguard and mother of a boy of Lisa's age, and Laively, an AI machine of his own invention endowed with Liv's voice, that he spent entire nights building after her death.
But Stan remains haunted by his past. As the silence gradually gives way to noises, whistles and sighs – sometimes even bursts of laughter – and Laively seems to take on a life of its own, memories and reality fade and blur…
And Stan's new family implodes…
For readers who love Laura Kasischke, David Nicholls and Kazuo Ishiguro
