Consumed

Sometimes cycling can be very, very bad for you... Cycling pro Romain Mariani is all set for success at the highest level. But then his world collapses. Haunted by the darkest of obsessions, he begins a descent more terrifying than any he has ever faced on the road. And waiting at the bottom is the awful truth of what he will have to do before he can start the long climb back up. A novel about insatiability and compulsion, ‘Consumed’ inhabits a unique space where Lance Armstrong’s ‘It’s Not About the Bike’ meets ‘Jekyll and Hyde’.
