Their hope for a new life is shaken by Daniel's discovery that Laythe is a master manipulator, who may be plotting to kill him! \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDaniel is thrust into a battle of wits as he seeks to understand how he'd been fooled for so long. His questions lead him to conspiracy theory researchers, the 'weird' part of the internet, and a mysterious plant medicine from Central Africa.\u003cp\u003eThe questions posed by this debut novel are contemporary, gripping and transformative. The story will resonate with people who have been in close proximity to a psychopath - who want to know that how they feel is not wrong. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eStories about our relationships with manipulators tend to focus on the male-female, romantic relationship, or on overtly destructive villains that are undoubtedly evil. By contrast, this story is framed in a platonic friendship between young men, where most of the violence is subtle. This allows the exploration of a unique perspective, while still evoking the relatable, raw emotions of being victimised by a predator's abuse.\u003cp\u003eMost of us have or will have to deal with a manipulator. The damage when we do can be devastating. You're left feeling crazy, with no one to tell you you're not. \u003cb\u003eThis book tells you you're not.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45571732209815,"sku":"9798431348679","price":1793.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798431348679.webp?v=1767940060","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/time-not-here-9798431348679","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
