by Michael Collins '87, '91M.A. (Bloomsbury)
When a novel by a
professor who recently attempted suicide is published, it appears his dimming literary career will
rebound. Then questions begin to surface about the child-murder at the center of his masterpiece,
and reality and art intertwine as a private detective begins checking out the mystery.
A previous Collins' novel, Keepers of Truth, was short-listed for the
Booker Prize.
