The rich, progressive, sunny sequel to the bestseller Snow by the Booker-winning author. 'He wanted to know who she was, and why he was convinced he had some mnemonic connection with her. It was that simple. But he knew it wasn't. It wasn't simple at all.'

When the pathologist-anthropologist Quirke from Dublin sees a familiar face while on vacation with his wife, it's hard at first to tell if his imagination is just getting away from him. Could it really be her, and could she be connected to a crime that almost destroyed an Irish political dynasty?

Unable to ignore his instincts, Quirke calls home and Detective St. John Strafford is soon dispatched to Spain. But he is not the only one on the way: as a terrifying henchman hunts his prey, they are all set for a violent showdown.
