The Accident on the A35

From the author of -His Bloody Project-, shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2016. There does not appear to be anything remarkable about the fatal car crash on the A35. But one question dogs Inspector Georges Gorski: where has the victim, an outwardly austere lawyer, been on the night of his death? The troubled Gorski finds himself drawn into a mystery that takes him behind the respectable veneer of the sleepy French backwater of Saint-Louis. Graeme Macrae Burnet returns with a literary mystery that will beguile fans of -His Bloody Project- and -The Disappearance of Ad- Bedeau-. Darkly humorous, subtle and sophisticated, -The Accident on the A35- burrows deep into the psyches of its characters and explores the forgotten corners of small-town life.
