Jay Hamilton lives a comfortable life in fashionable west London, listening to the minor and major dysfunctions of the over-privileged clients who frequent his psychoanalytic practice. But the darker recesses of his own psyche would not stand up to close examination: such is Jay's hunger for recognition as a creative force that he exploits the vulnerable people he counsels as material for his fiction writing. Author Dana Flynn is determined to scratch beneath the surface while researching a biography she intends to write about Richard, Jay's murdered brother and a genius professor of mathematical linguistics. She soon discovers that Jay's professional life is as precarious as his personal relationships.
