A chilling mystery from the Man Booker Prize winner
Klappentext zu „Snow “
'An outstanding novel and an absolute page-turner.' Irish Independent
'A typically elegant country house mystery.' Guardian, Biggest books of the Autumn
A CrimeReads Most Anticipated Book of 2020
'The body is in the library,' Colonel Osborne said. 'Come this way.'
Following the discovery of the corpse of a highly respected parish priest at Ballyglass House - the Co. Wexford family seat of the aristocratic, secretive Osborne family - Detective Inspector St John Strafford is called in from Dublin to investigate.
Strafford faces obstruction from all angles, but carries on determinedly in his pursuit of the murderer. However, as the snow continues to fall over this ever-expanding mystery, the people of Ballyglass are equally determined to keep their secrets.
'The sinister and unnerving Snow has all the trimmings of a classic country house mystery - body in the library, closed circle of suspects, foul weather - all elevated by Banville's immaculate, penetrating prose.' Peter Swanson
