Wry humour and rural small-town crime, in the acclaimed Lucian Wing series. Lucian Wing is an experienced, practical man who enforces the law in his patch of the countryside with a steady hand and a generous tolerance. But when the locals start to send things awry, Wing must call on all the personal resources he has cultivated during his working life: patience, tact, and - especially - humour. A beautifully crafted novel of wry humour that will appeal to fans of Ace Atkins, Cormac McCarthy or Annie Proulx. 'Castle Freeman writes with both wit and a deep understanding of the human psyche.' - Guardian 'Shares many small-town, big-crime themes with Cormac McCarthy... it is impossible not to appreciate this.' - The Times 'Wonderful... every paragraph a gem. Freeman - like Cormac McCarthy, like Annie Proulx - shows us the awkward realness of lives, and does it with humour, with wry perception, with great style.' - R. J. Ellory 'A small miracle - sharp, sly, moving and full of heart' - Nick Cave
