About this listen

In the unremarkable French town of Saint-Louis, a mysterious stranger stalks the streets; an elderly woman believes her son is planning to do away with her; a prominent manufacturer drops dead. Between visits to the town’s hostelries, Chief Inspector Georges Gorski ponders the connections, if any, between these events, while all the time grappling with his own domestic and existential demons.

Graeme Macrae Burnet once again pierces the respectable bourgeois façade of small-town life in this, the concluding part of his trilogy of Gorski novels. He injects a wry humour into the tiniest of details and delves into the darkest recesses of his characters’ minds, but above all provides an entertaining, profound and moving listen.

Critic reviews

'A deeply imagined and perfectly realised novel, and reading it is a dizzyingly immersive experience … [this] concluding part is breathtaking – tragic, cinematic, propulsive – and marks a new standard in contemporary crime fiction.’ (Martin MacInnes, Booker-longlisted author of In Ascension)
'This quirky blend of psychological thriller and smalltown life is both thought-provoking and entirely convincing.' (Laura Wilson, The Guardian)
'The Best Recent Crime and Thrillers.' (The Guardian)
'A tantalizing blend of psychological thrills and small-town life … a convincing depiction of bureaucratic and provincial rot. Fans of the series will be pleased.' (Publishers Weekly)
