The Kills: Richard House in conversation with Kerry Husdon

Book Event: Richard House talks to Kerry Husdon about his extraordinary Booker Prize longlisted novel, The Kills. It is one hell of a brilliant book. The Kills is an epic novel of crime and conspiracy told in four books. It begins with a man on the run and ends with a burned body. Moving across continents, characters and genres, there will be no more ambitious or exciting novel in out in paperback in 2014. Camp Liberty is an unmanned staging-post in Amrah province, Iraq; the place where the detritus of the war is buried, incinerated, removed from memory. Until, suddenly, plans are announced to transform it into the largest military base in the country, codenamed the Massive, with a post-war strategy to convert the site for civilian use.
