Tantalus

Synopsis:
A psychological thriller about a girl from a dysfunctional family who blames her father for her brother’s suicide and sets out to engineer his downfall with the help of a beautiful youth from a Greek island.

The father, after a lifetime repressing his homosexual inclinations, falls into their honey-trap, but his seducer has plans of his own for both father and daughter, and she finds herself irresistibly enmeshed in the consequences of her own schemes.

Author Comment:
I was experimenting with different forms, determined to avoid writing dreary literary novels but still unsure of my direction.

As far as I can remember, this was ok. Mostly well received by the critics.
