Ordinary thunderstorms / William Boyd.
While in London for a job interview, Adam Kindred, a young climatologist, sits at a little Italian bistro down a leafy side street from the Embankment. During his meal he strikes up a conversation with a solitary diner at the next table, who leaves soon afterward. With horrifying speed, this chance encounter leads to a series of malign accidents through which Adam will lose everything - his home, family, friends, job, reputation, passport, credit cards, mobile phone - never to get them back. This is a heart-in-mouth conspiracy novel about the fragility of social identity and the corruption of big business.
