Produktbeschreibung

A Simon Serrailler Mystery from the award-winning author, “The Comforts of Home displays Susan Hill’s trademark talent for the grotesque, the macabre, and the stunning” (CrimeReads). In this gripping thriller, Simon, eager to be back at work after recovering from a near-fatal injury, takes on a cold-case review for the Lafferton police about a girl who disappeared some years before. Meanwhile, his family adjusts to changes of its own; namely his sister’s marriage to Chief Constable Kieron Bright. But when events take an unfavorable turn for the Chief Constable and an arsonist goes on a deadly rampage in Lafferton, Simon’s personal and professional lives intertwine in more complex and devastating ways than ever before. In the tradition of the fabulous mysteries of Ruth Rendell and P.D. James, The Comforts of Home is Susan Hill’s best work yet—a heart-pounding new addition to a highly applauded and “elegant” (New York Times) series.
