Additional information
by Graeme MacRae Burnet (Author)
From the Booker-nominated author of Case Study and His Bloody Project comes the next adventure of Inspector Gorski.
In the unremarkable French town of Saint-Louis, a mysterious stranger stalks the streets; an elderly woman believes her son is planning to kill her; a prominent businessman drops dead. Between visits to the town's drinking establishments, Chief Inspector Georges Gorski ponders what connections, if any, exist between these events, all while grappling with his own domestic and existential demons.
With his signature virtuosity, in which literary sleight-of-hand meets piercing insight into human nature, Graeme Macrae Burnet punctures the respectable bourgeois fa?ade of small-town life and unspools a spellbinding riddle that blurs the boundaries between suspect, investigator, writer, and reader.
