Missing (abridged edition of Australian Fugue: The Antipode Room) by Ruth Skilbeck (2016, paperback)
Mysterious Ruby Love, also known as the Countess Rivers, has been convicted for a murder she cannot remember. As she writes in her cell, she is carried away on a journey into memory in a fugue of voices, and hallucinations of music. Ancient Greek philosophy and numerology that Bach played with in his musical puzzle canons, weave the background to this fugue mystery.
As Ruby tries to remember what happened, Missing tells the same story as The Antipode Room in a faster-paced thriller form, without references to psychogenic fugue from medical books and journals and cultural texts discussed in the excerpts in The Antipode Room. It has significant differences in the narrator’s recall. Published by PostMistress Press, in 2015 (ebook); 2016 and 2017. Available in paperback. Missing does not include any images.
ISBN: 9780992277956 paperback.
