Présentation de l'éditeur :
Fintan Dunne, the detective at the centre of The Man Who Never Returned and Hour of the Cat, is back in this spellbinding story of an ill-fated OSS mission into the heart of the Eastern front and its consequences more than a decade after the wars end. As the Red Army continues its unstoppable march towards Berlin in the winter of 1945, Dunne and his fellow soldier Dick Van Hull volunteer for a dangerous drop behind enemy lines to rescue a team of OSS officers trying to abet the Czech resistance. When the plan goes south, Dunne and Van Hull uncover a secret that will change both of their lives. Years later, Dunne is drawn back into the shadowy realm of Cold War espionage in an effort to clear his friends name and right an injustice so shocking that men would, quite literally, kill to keep it quiet.
Revue de presse :
Dry Bones is a savvy, suspenseful tale of World War II espionage and Cold War skullduggery in which Fintan Dunne cements his place in the PI pantheon alongside Philip Marlowe and Sam Spade Every bit as unpredictable as Quinns first two instalments, this riveting conclusion to the trilogy leaves no doubt that Dunne is an ace of Spades who knows when to hold em and when to fold em --William Kennedy
Peter Quinn is a poet and an historian and one of our finest storytellers. He sits at the fireside of the American imagination. He can carve mystery out of mystery. The work is generous and agile and profound --Colum McCann
Perfecting, if not actually creating, a genre you could call the history-mystery --James Patterson
