Synopsis

Provocative, intense and deeply moving, Double Vision is a powerful story of one man’s quest to find redemption amidst the horror of twenty-first century war. Returning from Afghanistan after his photographer friend is killed by a sniper, war reporter Stephen Sharkey seeks release from his nightmares in an England seemingly at peace with itself. Questioning man’s inhumanity to man both abroad and at home, and whether love really can be the great redeemer, Double Vision is a searing novel of conflict in modern times.
