Griffin and Sabine sees a man named Griffin Moss, an artist in London, who has his life turned upside done when he receives an innocent postcard. The postcard is from an exotic woman named Sabine who lives on a tropical island thousands of miles away. His world is logical and now it is completely thrown off its course as Sabine can “see” what Griffin is painting. He wonders if she is a long-lost twin, clairvoyant, or an angel. The relationship could be something magical happening in his life or he could simply be going mad. The novel features the postcards and letters sent, and they are each beautifully created by Nick Bantock himself.
