Book Description

November 30, 2008
Two years have passed since the events of the bestselling Christine Falls, and much has changed for Quirke: his beloved Sarah is dead, his surrogate father lies paralyzed in a convent hospital and Phoebe, his long-denied daughter, has grown increasingly withdrawn and isolated. With much to regret from his last inquisitive foray, Quirke ought to know better than to let his curiosity get the best of him. Yet, a young woman's dubious suicide sets off a new string of hazards and deceptions. Descriptions in Spanish: Ha pasado el tiempo para Quirke, el hastiado forense que conocimos en El secreto de Christine. La muerte de su gran amor y el distanciamiento de su hija han conseguido acentuar su caracter solitario, pero su capacidad para meterse en problemas continua intacta. Cuando Billy Hunt, conocido de sus tiempos de estudiante, le aborda para hablarle del aparente suicidio de su esposa, Quirke se da cuenta de que se avecinan complicaciones, pero, como siempre, las complicaciones son algo a lo que no podra resistirse. De este modo se vera envuelto en un caso sordido en el que se mezclan las drogas, la pornografia y el chantaje, y que una vez mas pondra en peligro su vida. Esta novela de ambiente y trama apasionantes confirma a Benjamin Black como uno de los escritores contemporaneos de mejor estilo y mayor capacidad de persuasion en el genero de la novela negra.
