| Synopsis: |
North America is truly Michael Collins's heart of darkness. And it is a territory mapped with infinite precision in this new novel of murder and menace set in the frozen wastes of a winter town on the shores of Lake Michigan. Twenty years ago, when Frank was five, his parents burned to death in this former mining town. Now his uncle is dead too, shot by a mysterious stranger. When Frank hears that the stranger bears the name of a man who died twenty years before, he decides to head North. To dig up the dead. "The Resurrectionists" is marked by the same spirit and pace that characterised his Booker-shortlisted "Keepers of Truth". It's dark, sharp, fast, and blackly comic - a unique combination from a uniquely talented writer. |
