Product Description

Review
"From the reviews of Cutter and Bone: 'Guaranteed the last few pages of this novel will leave you reeling, the ending is both shocking and right' George P. Pelecanos (from his introduction) 'Truly wonderful' The Observer 'A wonderful novel, which lifts itself beyond any genre, type or classification by challenging the very definition of crime writing' Glasgow Herald

Jim Driver, Time Out
‘A troubling shadow-filled literary thriller from the 1970 that still packs a punch today’

5.0 out of 5 stars Another superb Thornburg, 16 April 2005
By A Customer
I read this one before 'Cutter and Bone' and believe me it's almost as good. A superb evocation of one man's absolute refusal to accept 'official' answers and his pushing and pushing until cracks begin to appear. Very good atmosphere and some well handled suspense.

A truly superb novel well worth your attention.
