Picador USA Publisher Description The hero of Christine Falls, Quirke, is a surly pathologist living in 1950s Dublin. One night, after having a few drinks at a party, he returns to the morgue to find his brother-in-law tampering with the records on a young womans corpse. The next morning, when his hangover has worn off, Quirke reluctantly begins looking into the womans history. He discovers a plot that spans two continents, implicates the Catholic Church, and may just involve members of his own family. He is warned--first subtly, then with violence--to lay off, but Quirke is a stubborn man. The first novel in the Quirke series brings all the vividness and psychological insight of John Banvilles writing to the dark, menacing atmosphere of a first-class thriller. Author Biography Benjamin Black is the pen name of acclaimed author John Banville, who was born in Wexford, Ireland, in 1945.
