Booker Prize winner and “Irish master”
(New Yorker) John Banville’s most ambitious crime
novel yet brings two detectives together to solve a globe-
spanning mystery
In 1950s Dublin, Rosa Jacobs, a
young history scholar, is found dead in her car. Renowned
pathologist Dr. Quirke and DI St. John Strafford begin to
investigate the death as a murder, but it’s the
victim’s older sister Molly, an established
journalist, who discovers a lead that could crack open the
case.
One of Rosa’s friends, it turns out,
is from a powerful German family that arrived in Ireland
under mysterious circumstances shortly after World War II.
But as Quirke and Strafford close in, their personal lives
may put the case—and everyone involved—in peril,
including Quirke’s own daughter.
Spanning
the mountaintops of Italy, the front lines of World War II
Bavaria, the gritty streets of Dublin and other unexpected
locales, The Lock-Up is an ambitious and arresting
mystery by one of the world’s most celebrated authors.
