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 woman's corpse. The next morning, when his hangover has worn off, Quirke reluctantly begins looking into the woman's 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 Banville's writing to the dark, menacing atmosphere of a first-class thriller.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Picador","offers":[{"title":"Christine Falls | John Banville | Paperback | 9780312426323 | Used: Very Good | Back Stacks B 1777522","offer_id":49765851005080,"sku":"1777522","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/714k1c_fxVL.jpg?v=1787971195","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/christine-falls","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
