(OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, OverDrive Listen)
Description
*NATIONAL BESTSELLER*
A New York Times Editors' Choice
Booker Prize winner and "Irish master" (The 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.

- content: AUDIOFILE Golden Voice John Lee brings Booker Prize winner John Banville's circuitous mystery clarity, assurance, and intelligence. After a young woman's body is found in a lock-up garage after what appears to be a suicide, Dublin pathologist Dr. Quirke discovers signs of foul play. Quirke and DI Stratford, attempting to put aside their personal animosities and resentments, begin a murder investigation. In Banville's fourth crime story featuring the duo, Lee creates a turbulent mood that reflects postwar Dublin in the 1950s. He provides credible characters with spot-on Irish lilts and authentic personalities. Moving from Italy to Nazi Germany and the Holocaust, from Ireland's deep-rooted anti-Semitism to its opposition to women's rights, the audiobook is best when revealing personal backstories. Lee's outstanding performance doesn't miss a nuance. S.J.H. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine
