For the first time on the Faber list, a new edition of John Banville's classic debut crime novel, as his Dublinset series starring the Pathologist Quirke moves under his own name.
‘His control and pacing cannot be faulted, and the final outcome is almost unbearably moving.’ Michael Dibdin, Guardian Quirke’s pathology department, set deep beneath 1950s Dublin, is his own gloomy realm: always quiet, always night, and always under his control. Until, late one evening, he stumbles across a body that should not be there.
The investigation he opens uncovers a dark secret at the heart of the city’s high Catholic network – a secret with the power to shake his own family and everything he holds dear
