Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Catherine Bush's riveting novel The Rules of Engagement explores the rules that govern both love and warfare. Arcadia Hearne fled Canada for Britain ten years ago after witnessing two students fight a duel over her in a Toronto ravine. A conflict specialist with London's Centre for Contemporary War Studies, the reclusive 31-year-old shields herself from any form of risk, romantic or geo-political. But when her globe-trotting sister, Lux, persuades her to deliver a package to a Somali exile in London, Arcadia is forced to confront the hidden violence of her past and to embrace the dangerous realities of her present. Wendy Van Riesen captures the emotional tension and intellectual rigour of this tautly constructed literary thriller about love and apathy in the era of Rwanda.
