Christine Falls Publisher's Summary

FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF SNOW

'Absorbing' The Times

'Gripping' Scotsman

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.

Praise for the Quirke Series:
'A joy to read.' Sunday Times
'Darkly dangerous [with] flinty humour.' Daily Telegraph
'Beguiling characters and evocative settings . . . Impeccable.' The Times
