Perhaps Quirke has been down among the dead too long. In this seventh novel of the series (following Holy Orders), the Irish pathologist has been suffering hallucinations and blackouts, and fears he may have a brain tumor. A specialist points to an old head injury from a savage beating, and prescribes an extended rest. But Quirke is not about to retire, and looks into a strange car-crash death that seems to him neither accident nor suicide. Then a pregnant woman-a friend of his daughter Phoebe's-disappears, and when Quirke enlists his friend Inspector Hackett to help him find her, the two untangle a string of events leading into an underworld where a powerful figure hides behind politics and religion. Written by Man Booker Prize winner John Banville under the pen name Benjamin Black, the Quirke mystery series follows the criminal pathologist's cases in 1950s Dublin, and inspired the BBC television series of the same name.
