Faith Zanetti, war correspondent and now a mother, is sleeping with an edgy Russian who lives on the seedy side of ex-pat London. When he gets dramatically poisoned and suspects the Russian security services of targeting him, Faith is sucked into a drama that transports her to the swelter of Cairo and into a breathtaking and terrifying world she barely knew existed.

Sharply observed, moving and totally compulsive, My Favourite Poison is a spectacular adventure for the heroine men want to be with and women want to be.

Reviews

  • ‘The plot accelerates like a speedboat without a driver, hurtling back and forth between the violent, monied hubbubs of Moscow and Cairo . . . While Blundy insists she isn’t a political writer, the political flavour of the places she writes about creeps into her work, be it Putin’s Russia or modern Egypt, torn between the rise of Islamic fundamentalism and more modernising tendencies . . . sharply written, acidically witty and utterly absurd’ London Metro
