Recommended by bookseller Eleanor Franzen:

"Attila is in London for a conference; Jean is there on a grant that sees her gathering data on urban foxes for Southwark Council. They meet cute(-ish), when Jean bumps into Attila on Waterloo Bridge, and continue to collide over the course of a week, as Attila tries to ease the demented old age of a former lover, Rosie, and to locate his missing nephew Tano. Like a cross between Sarah Hall's The Wolf Border (one of my most beloved books) and John Lanchester's Capital; a fantastic London novel."
