I'm a huge Ballard fan, but this novel was hard to get through. The first part indicates that it's going to be a murder-mystery, with Charles Prentice, our main character, trying to prove that his brother didn't burn 5 people to death in a house.
Around 100 pages in, it peters out into another version of @High-Rise , only not as good. Though, while this was the case, the last 3 pages were strong, and when I reached the end, I almost wanted it to go on.
