£20.00

Luke Jennings is the author of the Villanelle books that were made into the TV series Killing Eve. A blood knot is a common fisherman’s practice of tying one line to another, but this book is about much more than fishing – alright, it is about fly fishing, primarily, but the topic wraps itself around Jennings’ schooldays in the 1960s, his relationship with his decorated WWII hero father, and his piscatorial mentor and inspiration, Robert Nairac, a charismatic teacher, fly fisher and falconer who reads like someone out of an Evelyn Waugh novel. This is the Slightly Foxed hardback edition in mint condition.
