In 1945, a German seals a pact in a monastery in the Dolomites. More than a decade later, the death of Rosa Jacobs in Dublin seems like suicide, but Quirke and Inspector Strafford investigate a possible crime. With the victim's sister, a journalist, the case connects to a German family in Wicklow and their business in Israel.
First instalment of the Quirke & Strafford series, in the Alfaguara Negra collection, translated by Antonia Martín Martín. Original title: The Lock-Up.
For fans of crime fiction with a historical backdrop and readers of Benjamin Black/John Banville.
William John Banville is an Irish novelist, adapter of dramas, and screenwriter. A former member of Aosdána, he voluntarily relinquished the financial stipend in 2001 to another, more impoverished, writer.
